From  H.  C.  Phelps 

To  My  150,000  Old  Customers 

And  to  My  New  Customers-Everywhere 


Fellow  Buggy  Users  : — 
I  am  proud  to  come  before  you  here 
again  as  the  personal  buggy  maker  for 
l.")(i,OOU  people.  This  is  my  twelfth  year. 
I  show  you  a  map  of  the  United  States 
here  on  page  10  giving  the  records  by 
states  as  to  just  where  150.000  Split  Hick- 
ory Buggies  are  in  use  today. 
I  have  never  heard  of  a  Split  Hickory 
Buggy  that  has  completely  worn  out  in 
the  eleven  years  that  I  have  made  them. 
I  know  that  it  will  pay  every  man  who  is 
in  the  market  for  a  buggy  of  any  kind 
to  let  me  have  a  few  words  with  him  here 
on  these  opening  pages  and  get  the  bene- 
fit of  my  experience  whether  he  buys 
from  me  or  not. 

My  old  friends  know  me  and  they  know 
Split  Hickory  Vehicles. 

Just  a  Word  to  New  Customers. 

From  a  small  start  eleven  years  ago,  I 
have  built  up  the  largest  vehicle  business 
of  its  kind  in  the  world.  That  means 
something  to  every  buggy  buyer. 
I  now  own  and  operate  the  largest  ve- 
hicle and  harness  factory  in  the  country 
making  vehicles  and  harness  for  individ- 
ual customers. 

My  150,000  regular  customers  all 
through  the  United  States  are  loyal  to 
me  and  the  greatest  boosters  for  Split 
Hickory  Vehicles  any  manufacturer 
ever  had. 

They  know  that  I  appreciate  their  first 
orders  and  every  order  I  get  from  them. 
They  know  that  I  also  appreciate  and 
thank  them  for  the  thousands  of  orders 
that  I  have  received  from  their  friends 
whom  they  have  recommended  to  me  on 
account  of  the  high  quality  of  my  buggies 
and  the  monev  that  I  have  saved  them. 


The  enormous  volume  of  my  business,  the 
economies  that  I  am  able  to  save  every 
one  of  my  customers  on  both  manufactur- 
ing and  selling  and  the  savings  I  am  able 
to  ofifer  you  today  on  any  vehicle  or  har- 
ness shown  in  this  book,  have  been  made 
possible  largely  because  of  the  intense  loy- 
alty and  appreciation  of  my  regular  cus- 
tomers, for  which  I  am  truly  grateful. 

Mutual  Confidence. 

The  reader  of  this  book,  unless  he  is  an 
old  customer,  must  judge  me  and  my 
products  by  what  he  finds  in  these  pages. 
My  confidence  in  the  buggies  and  harness 
that  I  make  is  proven  by  my  liberal  sell- 
ing plan. 

This  book  goes  to  you  to  show  you  the 
biggest  selection  of  vehicles  and  harness 
offered  in  America  today  and  must  es- 
tablish confidence  in  your  mind  before  I 
can  hope  to"  receive  an  order  from  you. 
If  you  had  time  to  read  them,  I  could 
show  you  thousands  of  unsolicited  testi- 
monial letters  from  customers  of  mine  in 
every  state  in  the  Union. 
I  show  you  plenty  of  examples  of  such 
letters  in  these  pages,  besides  bank  let- 
ters and  references  of  every  kind,  together 
with  my  guaranty  on  page  14. 
I  have  been  in  business  and  selling  my 
vehicles  by  mail  through  my  catalogs  for 
over  eleven  years  and  not  only  my  150,000 
customers  know  that  they  can  place  con- 
fidence in  everything  that  I  claim  for 
Split  Hickory  vehicles,  but  also  the  pub- 
lishers of  hundreds  of  farm  papers,  mag- 
azines and  periodicals  of  all  kinds  know 
that  their  readers  are  absolutely  safe  in 
dealing  with  me. 

I  have  been  advertising  in  these  papers  for 

II  years  and  these  publishers  have  never. 


Phelps  Mile  ^  busies  --; 


had  a  complaint  or  kick  about  Phelps  or 
Split  Hickories  from  any  of  their  mil- 
lions of  readers. 

These  people  all  know  that  I  have  saved 
niiliiiins  of  dollars  to  purchasers  of  ve- 
hicles during  the  past  eleven  years  on  my 
plan  of  sellini;^  direct  at  factory  prices. 
Yet  no  salesman  or  "booster"  can  go  from 
my  factory  to  you  to  sell  you  any  of  the 
goods  I  make. 

My  ])roducts  are  introduced  to  you  by  my 
advertisements  and  this  book  and  must 
"stay  sold"  after  you  get  them,  from  the 
satisfaction  they  give  you.  or  come  back 
to  me. 

So  all  I  need  is  your  confidence  to  start 
with. 

Bigger  Selection — Your  Gain. 

If  you  are  in  the  market  for  any  kind  of 
a  vehicle,  you  cannot  get  a  better  or  big- 
ger selection  than  this  book  offers  you. 
Dealers  today  are  not  in  position  to  show 
buggies  or  sell  buggies  of  high  quality  as 
they  could  a  few  years  ago. 
There  has  been  a  big  depreciation  in  the 
last  five  years  in  the  f|uality  of  almost 
every  line  of  buggies  manufactured,  ex- 
cept Split  ITickory. 

You  will  sec  the  reason  when  you  realize 
that  since  automobiles  came  into  such 
general  use,  many  buggy  manufacturers 
rushed  into  the  making  of  automol)iles  or 
autoiuobile  parts,  such  as  bodies,  etc..  and 


have  either  neglected  their  buggy  business, 
or  discontinued  it  entirely. 
The  manufacturers  who  sold  in  the  old, 
roundabout  way  through  wholesalers,  job- 
bers, and  dealers,  found  themselves  in  be- 
tween two  fires — the  automobile  on  one 
side  and  the  mail  order  buggy  manufac- 
turer on  the  other.  It  has  been  a  hard 
fight  for  them  to  keep  their  prices  up.  and 
they  had  to  on  account  of  the  profits  they 
had  to  give  the  middlemen.  Furthermore, 
many  of  their  dealers  quit  buying  bug- 
gies, except  in  small  lots,  knowing  they 
had  to  com])ete  with  the  mail  order 
house  on  one  side  and  the  automobile  on 
the  other. 

Dealers  who  used  to  buy  buggies  in  car- 
loads from  other  manufacturers  now  buy 
only  a  few  buggies  at  a  time  and  they 
have  to  take  what  they  can  get  from  run 
down  stocks,  or  old  styles  and  often  shop- 
worn buggies,  way  out  of  date. 
Pjut  I  have  stuck  to  the  buggy  business. 
Many  of  my  friends  said,  "Phelps,  why 
don't  you  go  into  the  automobile  busi- 
ness?" T  couldn't  see  it  that  way.  T  made 
up  my  mind  that  the  automobile  business 
was  going  to  help  me.  T  based  my  opin- 
ion on  what  I  knew  of  both  buggy  and 
autouiobile  conditions  throughout  the 
United  States.  T  know  buggies  and  T 
know  automobiles.  T  have  driven  a  buggy 
all  my  life — drive  one  today — and  expect 
to  always  drive  one.     T  have  also  driven 


an  automobile  ever  since  they  have  been 
anywhere  near  dependable,  and  expect  to 
keep  on  driving  one. 

The  automobile  will  never  take  the  place 
of  the  buggy — buggies  will  never  take  the 
place  of  automobiles.  There  is  room  for 
the  two.  Millions  of  people  will  never 
own  an  automobile.  Most  people  who 
own  an  automobile  will  also  own  a  buggy 
to  be  used  when  they  can't  use  the  car,  or 
when  it  is  too  expensive  to  use  it.  Many 
buyers  of  automobiles  who  bought  their 
cars  two  or  three  years  ago  have  come 
back  to  the  use  of  buggies  exclusively. 

The  Automobile  Has  Helped  Make 
Me  the  Largest  Buggy  Manu- 
facturer in  America. 

The  reason  I  can  offer  you  the  biggest  se- 
lection of  highest  grade  buggies  in  Amer- 
ica today  is  that  I  have  stuck  to  making 
buggies  and  have  not  been  interested  in 
making  automobiles  or  automobile  parts. 
T  have  gone  right  on  year  after  year  in- 
creasing the  volume  of  my  business  and 
making  many  up  to  date  improvements 
that  you  see  as  shown  in  this  book. 
If  you  will  compare  the  selection  that  you 
can  make  from  this  book  with  that  shown 
in  any  other  catalog  published  by  any  oth- 
er manufacturer  in  America,  I  am  sure 
you  will  decide  that  Phelps  is  the  up-to- 
the-minute  buggy  maker  of  America. 
A  man  wants  to  be  proud  of  the  buggy  he 
owns.  When  he  drives  to  town,  or  on  any 
road,  or  in    anv    gathering,    he    wants 


something    more    than    an    out    of    date 
stock  job  vehicle. 

So  when  you  go  through  the  following 
pages  of  this  latest  book,  I  know  you  will 
appreciate  that  you  are  having  the 
chance  to  select  just  what  you  want  from 

More   Buggies   Than  Could  Be 
Found  in  25  Dealers*  Stores. 

I  haven't  anything  against  the  dealers. 
Your  grandfather  bought  a  buggy  at  re- 
tail— the  old  way. 

You  can  buy  a  buggy  at  wholesale — the 
new  way. 

Your  grandfather  paid  from  $30.00  to 
$80.00  excess  profit — his  way  of  buying — 
and  now  the  local  retail  buggy  dealer  is 
mad  because  he  cannot  make  you  pay  him 
the  same  old  grandfather's  profit. 
But  times  have  changed  "since  mother 
was  a  girl."  Later  methods  have  come 
into  vogue.  People  have  found  out  they 
are  perfectly  safe  buying  vehicles  and  lots 
of  other  things  Direct  from  the  Maker 
without  paying  any  middleman's  profit — 
unless,  of  course,  they  are  sentimental  and 
want  to  give  some  fellow  $25.00  or  $50.00 
just  because  they  know  his  first  name 
and  call  him  "Joe"  or  "Bill." 
You  have  seen  some  howls  printed  in  pa- 
pers by  manufacturers  of  different  kinds 
of  articles  against  mail  order  manufac- 
turers. Now  I  am  not  going  to  waste 
much  ammunition  answering  these  cries 
of  despair  because  it  is  too  evident  on 
the  face  of  it  that  their  profits  are  hit  and 
that  is  whv  thev  are  howling. 


I  aiu  jii>t  i;<'ini;  to  ask  all  the  readers  of 
this  book  to  look  back  about  ten  years  and 
then  answer  me  this  one  question  honest- 
ly— have  the  prices  of  home  necessities  in 
the  way  of  bu.'ji^ic'^,  harness,  vehicles, 
household  furnitrirc.  stoves,  wearing  ap- 
parel, etc..  gone  up  or  gone  down  since 
the  well-known  manufacturer  selling-di- 
rect-to-you-by-niail  came  into  existence? 
You  know  as  well  as  I  do  that  the  dealer 
used  to  charge  $1()().0()  and  $l•^■).00  for 
the  buggy  that  he  today  sells  for  STo  00 
to  SSO.OO  and  /  sell  at  from  $lo.00  to 
$50.00.  He  has  come  down  just  as  far 
as  he  can  and  still  get  his  profit  out  of 
your  pocket.  He  has  been  willing  to  di- 
vide Your  money  with  Yoii. 
Is  it  not  a  fact  that  you  do  not  pay  the 
local  retail  dealer  any  where  near  as  high 
a  price  for  many  things  as  you  did  be- 
fore the  ad\  ent  of  the  mail  order  way  of 
selling. 

lUit  the  times  and  methods  and  whole 
tendency  of  the  buggy  manufacturers  sell- 
ing through  dealers  today  has  been  against 
the  buggy  dealer  and  he  knows  it. 
The  dealer  today  buys  the  best  stock  jobs 
that  he  can  get  but  many  of  the  styles  and 
kinds  you  might  want,  the  dealer  does  not 
carry  at  all. 

So  by  buying  from  a  dealer  you  have  to 
take  what  he  happens  to  have,  whether 
it  reallv  suits  you  and  your  family  or  not. 
In  buying  from  my  catalog,  vou  can  get 
just  the  vehicle  you  want  with  the  ad- 
vantage of  many  options  ou  my  made-to- 
order  plan. 


As  you  look  through  this  book,  you  will 
realize  that  no  dealer — in  fact  no  twenty- 
five  dealers'  stores  in  many  cities — couTd 
])ossibly  show  you  the  great  variety  to 
choose  from  which  you  will  find  here, 
including  both  vehicles  and  harness. 

Why  I  Use  My  Photograph. 

1  lave  you  wondered  why  I  use  my  pho- 
tograph in  all  my  advertising?  i  want  to 
tell  you  wh}-.  In  the  first  place,  1  have 
no  salesmen  or  rei)resentatives  and  1 
cannot  pt)ssibly  meet  all  my  customers 
face  to  face. 

Yet  I  want  them  to  know  just  as  much 
as  it  is  possible  to  know  about  Phelps  and 
the  buggies  that  l'heli)s  makes. 
1  am  not  pnnid  of  seeing  my  ])hotograj)h 
ill  ])rint.  Uut  I  am  proud  of  Split  Hick- 
ory \ehicles.  J  i)ers(jnally  stand  behiud 
every  one  1  make  and  sell. 
My  photograph  has  become  part  of  the 
recognized  trade-mark  of  Si)lit  Hickory 
Vehicles. 

I  ask  every  customer  to  hold  me  ])erson- 
ally  responsible — to  know  me  as  a  man 
who  takes  a  pride  in  his  goods  and  the 
busines.s  he  is  conducting — the  man  from 
whom  you  can  get  satisfaction  immedi- 
ateh'  if  anything  should  be  found  unsat- 
isfactory. 

My  ]:)hotograpli  in  my  advertisements  and 
in  my  book  and  other  literature  is  as  good 
as  !ny  bond  to  you.  It  is  your  assurance 
that  you  are  doing  business  with  an  indi- 
vidual— IMielps — who  is  constantly  giving 
his  personal  attention  to  his  business. 


Highest  Grade  That's  Made. 

My  Split  Hickory  Vehicles  are  strictly 
high-grade  trade-marked  vehicles. 
They  must  not  be  confused,  or  compared, 
with  any  other  vehicles  on  the  market  at 
anywhere  near  the  prices  asked  for  them 
— in  style,  quality  or  finish. 
No  other  manufacturer  gives  the  same  In- 
dividual attention  to  each  individual  ve- 
hicle that  is  given  in  my  factory.  My 
factory  is  conducted  on  a  plan  of  han- 
dling each  individual  order  specially  bv 
itself.  My  vehicles  are  made  individually 
— one  at  a  time — not  in  lots.  I  don't 
manufacture  vehicles  in  advance  from 
which  to  fill  orders — I  have  no  stock 
room  where  they  are  stored  in  quantities. 
In  buying  any  vehicle  from  me,  you  are 
sure  of  getting  just  the  vehicle  you  want, 
made-to-order  as  you  want  it,  delivered 
fresh  and  new  when  you  want  it. 
You  will  not  be  shipped  a  bulk  vehicle  that 
has  been  in  a  store  room  for  months — 
perhaps  years — where  the  finish  has  be- 
come dulled,  marred,  cracked  or  shop- 
worn— such  a  vehicle  as  you  are  apt  to 
get  if  you  purchase  through  dealers. 
I  am  continually  turning  my  raw  material 
day  by  day.  Every  little  improvement 
that  comes  up — every  new  st}'le — every 
new  attachment  of  merit — is  continually 
being  adopted  in  my  factories,  thereby 
giving  each  customer  a  vehicle  that  is  up 
to  the  very  minute  in  every  particular. 

Made  to  Order. 

I  am  the  only  manufacturer  in  the  United 
States  making  vehicles  in  large  quantities 
to  order  for  individual  users.  This  one 
special  feature  of  my  method  of  doing 
business   has    alone    sold   thousands   upon 


thousands  of  my  vehicles.  By  this  meth- 
od of  making  vehicles  to  my  customers' 
order,  I  can  give  each  job  individual  char- 
acter and  features  impossible  to  obtain  in 
any  other  way.  I  make  each  job  for  each 
customer  just  as  if  it  were  the  only  job 
I  was  manufacturing. 

The  consumer  has  many  choices  as  to 
style,  finish  and  trimmings,  ordering  just 
the  vehicle  he  wants — made  as  he  wants 
it — permitting  him  to  have  his  own  indi- 
vidual ideas  and  tastes  in  his  buggv. 

Thirty  Days*  Free  Road  Test. 

I  am  the  originator  of  selling  vehicles  of 
all  kinds  subject  to  a  thirty  days'  free 
road  test. 

When  I  originated  this  idea  and  offered 
my  customers  the  advantage  of  testing 
any  vehicle  they  bought  from  me  in  their 
own  way  as  their  own  on  all  kinds  of 
roads,  thirty  days'  free,  to  be  sure  that 
they  were  getting  perfect  satisfaction  all 
of  the  old  line  manufacturers  said  I  would 
go  broke  in  a  year. 

But  when  they  said  this,  they  were  fixing 
their  opinions  on  the  quality  of  vehicles 
they  had  been  selling  and  not  on  the 
quality  of  Split  Hickory  A^ehicles. 
Perhaps  we  were  both  right.  Perhaps 
their  vehicles  would  not  stand  such  a  test. 
But  I  knew  Split  Hickory  Vehicles  would 
satisfy  the  most  critical  customers.  I  had 
confidence  in  Split  Hickory  A^ehicles  and 
confidence  in  the  judgment  and  honesty 
of  my  customers,  and  I  trusted  them  to 
give  me  a  square  deal  and  they  in  tm-n, 
1.50,000  of  them,  trusted  me  with  their 
orders,  and  on  this  plan  I  have  built  up 
the  largest  vehicle  business  of  its  kind  in 
the  world. 


My  jilan  is  just  a  fair.  s(|narc.  man-to-man 
])lan.  I  positively  will  not  have  a  dissat- 
isfied customer  anywhere.  I  want  none 
of  them  to  feel  that  they  are  not  getting 
a  vehicle  exactly  as  represented  in  every 
particular  and  entirely  satisfactory, 
riierefore.  T  offer  this  free  trial  plan  to 
c\ery  customer  without  restrictions. 

Put  the    Savings  in  Your  Pocket. 

i'>\  comparing  anv  vehicle  illustrated  in 
this  191'-^  catalog  of  mine  with  any  similar 
vehicle  sold  through  dealers  or  any  other 
way.  you  will  find  that  you  can  keep  an 
average  saving  of  from  $2."').0o  to  $40.00 
in  your  pocket,  according  to  the  vehicle 
you  select. 

I  guarantee  that  for  similar  quality.  I  will 
save  you   from  an   average  of  $25.00  to 
$40.00  and  u])  in  this  way. 
T   sell  direct   from  my  factory  to  user. 
T   |L,n'\e  the  buyer  my  factory  price, 
ihc  dealer,   in   selling  you   a  vehicle  not 
only  has  to  make  his  ])rofit  and  expenses 
hut  the  jobber  who  sold  the  dealer,  and 
the  manufacturer  who  sold  the  jobber  also 
have  a  profit  to  be  taken  care  of. 
These  profits  are  represented  bv  the  aver- 
age  of  $?r).0(»   to   $40.00   and '  up   that   T 
save    you    according    to    the    vehicle    you 
choose. 

Tf  you  will  study  the  (piality  of  my  ve- 
hicles and  make  the  30  Day  Road  Test 
that  I  offer,  you  will  see  yourself  that 
mv  statement  of  the  savings  to  be  made, 
fur  equal  <|uality.  is  not  exaggerated. 

A  Word  About  Safety.

Stop  to  think  just  a  minute,  if  you  will, 
and  you  will  realize  that  it  would  be  im- 
possible for  me  to  carry  on  my  business 
on  this  ])lan  if  I  did  not  give  every  cus- 
tomer absolutely  a  square  deal,  and  live 
up  to  every  agreement  and  every  repre- 
sentation that  I  make  in  my  catalogs  and 
printed  matter,  because  they  all  go  through 
the  L'nited  States  mail.  That  protects 
you  absolutely  against  any  misrepresen- 
tation on  my  part  because  T  could  not 
continue  to  do  business  through  tlie  mail 
if  T  in  any  way  misrepresented  anything. 

Just  a  Final  Word. 

A  man's  own  pocket     is     about  as  near 

"home"  as  he  can  keep  the  money. 

So  we  do  not  hear  as  much  these  days 

al)out    patronizing    "home    industries"    as 

we  did  for  a  while. 

It  is  all  right  to  have  local  pritle  and  be 

friends  with  your  home  town  people,  but 

when  a  man  is  going  to  buy  a  buggy,  he 

might  just  as  well  himself  keep  the  profits 

that  the  dealer  would  make. 

Always  remember  that  the  dealer  has  to 

pay  a  stiff  price  and  send  the  money  away 

from   home  to   the   manufacturer  that   he 

buys  from. 

"S'our  pocket   is   just   as  good   a   place  to 

keep  the  savings  (all  middleman's  profits) 

and  you  can  spend  them  in  your  own  home 

town  just  as  well  and  a  great  deal  more 

to  your  satisfaction  than  the  dealer  can. 

T  do  not  have  to  tell  you  that. 

So  all  T  ask  of  you  now  is  to  use  your 

own  judgment  in  picking  out  the  veliicle 

— or  harness — you  want  this  season  and 

let   me  send  it   to  you   right  away  under 

my  liberal   selling  jilan.     Then   judge   for 

yourself.

Instructions  How  To  Order 


If  yoii  have  not  already  done  so,  please  read 
*^     our   :!0-day    fne    trial    plan    uii    the    opposite 
page. 

^■ou  will  find  an  order  blank  in  the  back  of 
2^**^  this  catalogue.  I'lcasc  use  it.  Write  your 
name,  address  and  shipping  point  in  the  blank 
spaces  provided  for  this  purpose.  Write  the 
other  instructions  that  you  have  to  give  us  in 
the  other  blank  spaces  on  the  order  blank.  On 
the  back  of  the  order  blank  is  room  for  any  spe- 
cial instructions.  Of  course,  if  you  have  any  ob- 
jection to  using  our  order  blank,  you  can  write 
your  order  in  a  letter  in  your  own  way  and  we 
can  fill  it  just  the  same,  and  correctly,  but  the 
easiest  and  best  way  for  us  both  is  for  you  to 
use  the  order  blank. 

J  If  you  want  any  changes  made  from  the 
*^'^"  regular  construction  or  finish,  state  what 
these  chan.ucs  are.  Unless  instructed  to  the  con- 
trary we  fill  all  orders  to  correspond  with  the 
description  in  this  catalogue. 

4th.     Prepaid  ^'  there  is  no  agent  at  your  ship- 
P     *.    ,  ping  point   the  freight   must   be 

prepaid  when  we  ship.  We  can, 
and  arc  perfectly  willing  to  do  this  for  you  if  you 
send  the  freight  money  with  your  order.  Be  sure 
about  this,  for  it  only  means  delay  if  there  is  no 
agent  at  your  shipping  point,  as  the  Railroad 
Company  will  not  take  freight  consigned  to  any 
station  where  there  is  no  agent,  unless  the  freight 
is  paid  in  advance. 


How    to    measure    track. 


one  who  knows,  or  measure  your  old  buggy. 
The  illustration  on  this  page  shows  you  how  to 
measure  track  correctly.  Always  measure  on 
the  ground  and  not  across  the  top  of  the  wheels. 
In  measuring  an  old  buggy  allow  some  for  un- 
usual dish  of  the  wheels,  which  would  make  the 
track  ai)pear  a  little  wider  than  it  should  be,  or 
was  when  it  was  new.  4  feet  4  inches,  4  feet  8 
inches,  or  5  feet  2  inches  will  cover  90  per  cent 
of  all  tracks  used,  so  if  your  old  buggy  should 
measure  close  to  cither  you  are  safe  in  ordering 
that  width.  Do  not  order  "standard  track,"  as 
there   is    no   standard    in    track    for   light   vehicles.

vehicle  or  harness  that  is  less  than  the 
prices  named  in  this  book.  It  is  only  a  waste  of 
your  time  and  postage. 

We  treat  our  customers  fairly  by  treating  them 
all  exactly  alike,  and  the  only  way  we  can  do  this 
is  to  put  our  first,  last  and  only  price  in  plain  fig- 
ures right  here  in  this  book.  If  you  want  some 
certain  vehicle  with  changes  or  extras  and  are 
unable  to  determine  the  cost,  write  us  telling  us 
the  changes  and  the  extras  that  you  want  and 
we  will  be  glad  to  figure  the  cost  for  you,  but 
it  will  be  in  every  case  figured  on  the  prices 
quoted  in  this  catalogue. 

The  low  prices  on  the  high  grade  quality 
Term*  ^^^  goods  as  quoted  in  this  catalogue  are 
made  possible  only  by  our  way  of  doing  business. 
We  buy  our  materials  and  pay  spot  cash  for  them. 
We  buy  low  because  the  firms  who  sell  us  take 
no  risk.  We  sell  for  cash  and  sell  low  because 
we  run   no  risk. 

If  we  had  to  take  credit  risks  and  stand  losses 
our  prices  would  have  to  be  advanced. 

Our   only    terms   are   cash-with-order   or   cash- 


This  is  absolutely 
necessary  before  we 
can  fill  your  order.  Dif- 
ferent widths  of  track  are 
used  everywhere.  We  often  find  two  different 
widths  of  track  in  the  same  county.  If  you 
do  not  know  the  width  of  track  used  in  your  on-deposit.  Please  do  not  ask  us  to  change  them, 
neighborhood   be    sure   and    find    out.     Ask   some       for  it  is  absolutely  impossible  for  us  to  do  so.

Thirty  Days'  Free  Trial  Plan  Explained 


o 


UR  free  trial  begins  on  the  day  you  receive 
your  vehicle. 

You  take  it  home  and  use  it  30  days — 
give  it  a  good,  hard  test  in  any  way  you  care  to. 

Ask  your  neighbors  what  they  think  about  it 
for  the  price  you  paid. 

Compare  it  with  other  new  vehicles  that  have 
sold  at  a  much  higher  price. 

Test  it  for  easy  riding  and  light  running. 

In  short,  satisfy  yourself  in  any  and  every  way 
that  it  is  just  what  we  represented  it  to  be  and 
absolutely  just  what  you  want. 

If  it   is,  keep   it. 

If  it  is  not — send  it  back.  We  will  not  charge 
you  a  penny  for  the  30  days  you  have  used  it. 

We  will  pay  the  freight  on  it  coming  back. 

We  will  return  to  you  the  freight  you  paid  on 
it  when  you  got  it. 

Could  anything  be  more  fair? 

Just  stop  a  minute  and  think  what  this  means 
to  us. 

In  the  first  place  we  guarantee  absolutely  to 
save  your  money  on  your  purchase. 

In  the  second  place,  you  must  be  satisfied  in 
every  way  and  we  leave  it  for  you  and  you 
only   to    decide. 

If  we  fail  in  either,  back  comes  the  vehicle — 
we  are  out  the  freight  both  ways. 

We  could  not  get  many  back  and  stay  in  busi- 
ness very  long,  could  we? 

The  secret  is,  they  do  not  come  back. 

We  have  been  manufacturing  and  selling  Split 
Hickory  Vehicles  on  this  very  same  thirty-days' 
free  trial  plan  for  over  twelve  years,  and  our 
twelfth  year  was  the  most  prosperous  of  all. 

We  quote  two  prices  on  each 
YouiT  Choice  vehicle  in  this  catalogue,  cash- 
in  OrdeiCing  with-order  and  cash-on-deposit. 
You  can  take  your  choice — it  makes  no  difference 
to  us  which  you  select.  There  is  no  more  profit 
in  one  than  the  other,  and  no  matter  which  you 


choose    you    get    the    thirty    days'    free   trial   just 
the  same. 

The  reason  our  cash-on-deposit  is  higher  than 
our  cash-with-order  price  is,  because  we  have  to 
pay  banks  and  express  agents  for  their  respons- 
ibility in  holding  deposits,  and  in  sending  the 
money  in  to  us,  and  it  requires  a  great  deal  more 
clerical  work  to  handle  a  cash-on-deposit  order 
than  it  does  one  where  the  cash  is  sent  with  the 
order. 

You  send  the  full  amount 
Cash  with  Order      of  purchase   (at  the  cata- 

Means  logue       cash-with-order 

price)  with  your  order.  If  you  return  the  goods 
we  return  your  money  in  full — every  cent  of  it. 

You  take  the  full  amount 
Cash  on  Deposit       of  your  purchase    (at  the 

iVleans  catalogue    cash-on-deposit 

price)  to  your  nearest  bank  or  express  agent 
(bank  preferred)  and  deposit  it  with  them.  They 
fill  out  and  sign  the  deposit  blank  on  the  back 
of  the  order  blank,  and  then  send  the  order  to 
us.  If  you  return  the  goods,  they  return  your 
money  when  you  show  them  you  have  returned 
the  goods  to  us. 

Fully  95  per  cent  of  our  customers  send  cash 
with  their  order,  as  we  are  well  known  to  al- 
most every  vehicle  user  throughout  the  United 
States,  and  it  is  cheaper  and  safer  to  order  that 
way.  We  are  thoroughly  responsible  for  any 
money  sent  us.  We  own  our  ground  (zy2  acres), 
our  factory  buildings  worth  nearly  $100,000.00, 
and  have  a  paid  up  capital  and  surplus  of  $100,- 
000.00,  and  best  of  all,  a  record  for  honest  and 
square  dealing  which  is  the  biggest  part  of  our 
assets. 

You  may  be  skeptical  about  our  ability  to  save 
you  money — you  may  be  doubtful  about  our  send- 
ing you  a  vehicle  that  will  suit  you  in  every  way, 
but  you  must  agree  with  us  in  this — that  it  can- 
not cost  you  one  cent  to  try  us.  If  we  fail,  it 
is  our  loss — all  of  it.  If  we  succeed,  we  both 
gain. 

Ours  is  the  largest  business  of  its  kind  in  the 
world,  and  we  built  it  up  by  giving  a  SQUARE 
DEAL  TO  EVERYONE.

Our  Cwo'Ycdr  6udrdntee 


Every    Split     Hickory    Vehicle    carries    a    two-year    guarantee. 

It  is  legally  made   and  signed  by  the  President  of  the   Company. 

It  is  issued  direct  to  the  purchaser  with  his  or  her  name  and  address 
written  in  and  the  date  of  shipment. 

Of  course,  we  all  know  that  a  guarantee  does  not  make  a  vehicle 
wear  any  better  or  last  any  longer,  but  just  the  same  we  want  our  cus- 
tomers to  have  the  same  confidence  in  the  high  grade  quality  of  Split 
Hickory  Vehicles  that  we  have,  and  we  know  of  no  better  or  more 
effective  way  of  showing  our  confidence  than  by  giving  a  strong,  binding, 
legal  guarantee  covering  all  materials  as  well  as  workmanship  for  two 
years  from  date  of  sale. 

Springs,  wheels,  axles,  body,  seat,  gear,  top  and  shafts  are  all 
covered  and  guaranteed  to  be  absolutely  free  from  any  and  every  defect 
or  imperfection  in  both  material  and  workmanship. 

By  our  rigid  inspection  of  all  materials  and  close  and  careful  sup- 
pervision  of  all  workmanship,  it  is  almost  impossible  for  any  defect  of 
any  kind  to  creep  in,  but  should  any  part  prove  defective  in  any  way 
within  two  years  from  date  of  sale,  we  will  promptly  and  gladly  repair 
or  replace  it  free  of  charge. 

This  strong  guarantee  which  we  have  lived  up  to  strictly  to  the 
letter  together  with  our  superior  quality  of  materials  and  workmanship, 
have  made  Split  Hickory  Vehicles  popular  with  vehicle  users  the 
world  over. 

We  do  not  agree  to  repair  or  replace  breakages  caused  by  run- 
aways, collisions  or  other  accidents,  neither  do  we  agree  to  pay  repair 
bills  not  authorized  by  us. 

As  a  last  word  we  want  to  say  this — that  if  anyone  intending  to 
purchase  a  vehicle  from  us  is  not  satisfied  with  our  guarantee,  we  will 
let  them  write  one  themselves  and  unless  absolutely  unfair  we  will 
gladly  sign  it. 

Such  is  our  confidence  in  our  Split  Hickory  Vehicles  and  we  want 
you  to  have  just  as  much.

Our  Robber  ^^'^  guarantee  our  solid  and  cushion  rubber  tires  to  wear  equal 

J.      p  to  any   rubber  tires   made,   regardless   of   the   price.     We  guar- 

lire  uuarantee  antee  that  our  rubber  tires  will   not  peel,  crack,   split,  travel   in 

the  channel  or  the  wires  break.  We  all  know  that  rubber  tires,  of  course,  will  wear 
out  in  time,  and  consequently  we  do  not  guarantee  that  they  will  not  wear  out,  but 
we  positively  guarantee  against  any  defect.  The  life  and  the  service  of  rubber  tires 
depend  upon  their  use.  Running  rubber  tires  over  roads  with  cracked  rock  with 
-harp  edges  will  cut  the  rubber  and  wear  it  out  in  a  short  time. 

The  Maker's  The  Goodyear  Tire   &  Rubber  Co.,  Akron,  Ohio,  guarantee  these 

f,  tires   against   all    defects    for   one   year    from   date   of   sale.     They 

viUaraDtee  have  thousands  of  agents  and  branch  houses  all  over  the  United 

States,  where  they  are  prepared  to  take  care  of  anj^  complaints,  repairs  or  replace- 
ment>  that  are  necessary  on  their  make  of  tires. 

Is  It  Advisable  To  ^^^  customers  often  ask  our  advice  as  to  whether  or  not  it 
D  R  kk  rT*  ?  would  be  economy  and  advisable  for  them  to  order  their  new 
Duy  I\UDDer  lires.  vehicle  equipped  with  rubber  tires.  Our  answer  to  this  question 
is  invariably  that  it  depends  entirely  upon  the  condition  of  the  roads  over  which 
the  vehicle  is  to  be  run.  If  ordinary  dirt  or  gravel  roads,  or  improved  turnpike  or 
macadam  roads,  rubber  tires  are  advisable,  and  will  give  splendid  satisfaction,  not 
only  adding  to  the  comfort  in  making  the  vehicle  ride  easier,  but  will  prolong  the 
life  of  a  vehicle  and  add  to  the  service  of  it,  because  they  take  up  sudden  jars  and 
a  great  deal  of  the  vibration.  Rubber  tires  will  also  make  any  vehicle  run  easier, 
thereby  making  it  easier  on  your  horse. 

There  are  lower  prices  quoted  on  rubber  tires  than  ours,  but  there  arc  cheaper, 
a  great  deal  cheaper  rubber  tires  made  than  the  Goodyear  Wing.  We  could  buy 
rubber  tires  at  a  saving  of  nearlj'  SO  per  cent,  but  we  could  not  conscientiously  rec- 
ommend or  guarantee  a  tire  of  this  kind  to  our  customers,  and  we  feel  that  the  "!)est 
is  the  cheapest,"  and  have  (pioted  prices  very  low  for  a  high  grade  rubber  tire.  There 
is  but  very  little  profit  in  rubl)er  tires  at  the  ])rices  we  <iuote,  but  we  would  rather 
sell  a  good   tire  on  a  small   profit   than  a  poor  tire  on  a  big  profit.

Complete  Freight  Information 


Many  people  who  have  never  bought  a  vehicle  direct  from  a  manufac- 
turer have  wrong  ideas  on  the  matter  of  freight,  which  is  in  many  cases 
due  to  gross  mis-representations  made  to  them  by  retail  dealers.  Our 
thousands  of  customers  understand  from  experience  that  the  matter  of 
freight  is  really  of  little  importance  when  the  great  saving  they  effect 
in  buying  direct  from  us  instead  of  through  the  dealer  is  considered; 
however,  for  the  benefit  of  those  who  are  in  doubt  about  the  matter,  we 
explain  below  all  matters  concerning  freight. 


Who  Pays  the 
Freight? 


The  Inst  purchaser  of  any  article 
always  pays  the  freight,  whither 
it  is  a  vihicic  or  any  otiicr  com- 
modity. It  is  impossible  for  a 
manufacturer  to  quote  his  price 
on  any  article  in  any  other  way  than  at  his  own  factory. 
When  you  buy  a  vehicle  from  us,  or  from  any  other  manu- 
facturer, you  always  pay  the  freight  on  it.  When  a  retail 
dealer  buys  from  his  manufacturer,  no  matter  whether  he 
buys  one  buggy  or  a  carload  of  buggies,  he  always  pays  the 
freight.  When  you  buy  from  a  retail  dealer,  you  pay  the 
freight,  though  he  tries  to  mislead  you  into  the  belief  that 
you  have  no  freight  to  pay.  Vou  can  rest  assured  that  your 
retail  dealer  paid  the  freight  on  the  vehicle  he  is  trying  to 
sell  you,  and  while  he  may  say  nothing  about  freight,  still 
the  amount  of  freight  that  he  paid  on  the  vehicle  is  added 
in  the  price  that  he  quoted  you,  together  with  his  other 
expense,   and   it   also   includes   his   profit. 

When  you  buy  from  a  dealer,  you  pay  him  just  as  much 
freight  as  if  you  bought  from  us,  and  you  also  pay  the 
manufacturer's  profit,  but  when  you  buy  from  us,  while  you 
pay  a  manufacturer's  profit,  you  do  not  pay  a  dealer's  profit, 
which  in  all  cases  is  the  largest  profit  in  a  vehicle  trans- 
action. 

Do  not  let  the  matter  of  freight  stand  in  the  way  of  yoin- 
ordering  one  of  our  vehicles.  Remember  that  if  we  fail  to 
prove  to  your  entire  satisfaction  that  we  have  saved  you 
money  that  we  will  take  the  vehicle  back  at  our  expense  and 
refund  not  only  the  full  purchase  price,  but  every  penny  of 
freight  that  you  i)aid.  Doesn't  it  stand  to  reason  that  when 
we  are  willing  to  take  the  chance  of  losing  the  freight  both 
wavs,  which  in  the  vast  majority  of  cases  would  ^imount  to 
more  than  what  our  profit  would  be,  that  we  must  be  abso- 
lutely  sure   that   we   can   save   you   money?

UOte  Our  Prices  in  cre.l,  for  the  reason  that 
freight  rates  vary,  owing  to 
distances.  It  costs  from 
SJ.i.OO  to  $.10.00  to  ship  a 
bi.iggy  to  California.  We  can 
ship  a  buggy  anywhere  in  the 
states  of  Indiana,  Oliio, 
Pennsylvania,  New  York, 
Kentucky  and  Michig:an,  at  an  average  cost,  figuring  all  points 
in  these  states  of  about  $2.50.  From  this  it  will  be  easily 
••cen  that  it  would  not  be  fair  to  average  uj)  the  freight  and 
make  our  customers  living  at  points  near  us  help  pay  the 
freight  to  points  where  the  rate   is  very   high. 

We  have  to  pay  freight  on  all  raw  materials  that  we  buy 
from  distant  points,  the  same  as  other  manufacturers,  and  the 
freight,  of  course,  affects  our  selling  price,  just  as  the 
freight  affects  the  dealer's  selling  price  on  the  finished  vehicle. 


In  the  descriprtion  of  each  and 
every  vehicle,  we  state  the 
approximate  crated  weight, 
built  the  way  we  regularly 
describe  it.  Where  an  extra 
pole  and  pair  of  shafts,  or 
heavier  proptirtions  through- 
out is  ordered,  it  will  be  un- 
derstood that  it  will  naturally 
make  the  vehicle  weigh  a  little  more.  The  seasoning  of  the 
crating  lumber  also  affects  the  weight  of  the  crate  one  way 
or    the    other,    but    our    approximate    crating    weights    are    the

How  to  Figure  the 
Freight  Yourself 


average   for  all   shipments  for  that  style  the  year  around,   and 
are  very  near  to  actual  crated  weights. 

Knowing  the  total  crated  weight  of  the  shipment,  you  can 
refer  to  our  table  of  freight  rates  per  hundred  pounds,  quoted 
on  iiages  22  and  2.1;  pick  out  the  closest  point,  to  you  and 
multiply  the  rate  given  under  the  34  or  under  the  54-inch 
crate,  according  to  the  way  your  vehicle  will  be  or  must  be 
crated,  by  the  approximate  weight,  and  that  will  show  you 
just  what  the   freight  will   be. 

If  there  is  no  rate  quoted  to  your  point,  and  you  are  tiot 
satisfied  to  estimate  it  from  the  nearest  point  quoted,  write 
us  and  we  will  (|Uote  you  a  rate  that  will  be  within  a  few 
cents  one  way  or  the  other  of  the  actual  rate  to  your  ship- 
Iiing  point.  We  employ  a  traffic  manager,  whose  duties  ar'. 
to  look  after  our  customers'  interests  and  secure  at  all  times 
the  lowest  existing  freight   rate. 


No  One  Can  Secure 
Any  Lower  Freight 
Rate  Than  You  Can 


A  great  many  of  our  cus- 
tomers have  the  mistaken  idea 
that  because  we  ship  thou- 
sands of  vehicles  each  year 
that  we  can  get  a  lower 
freight  rate  than  they  can. 
It  is  impossible  for  any  rail- 
road company  to  discriminate  and  quote  any  person  or  firm 
a  lower  freight  rate  than  they  would  another,  without  laying 
themselves  liable  to  prosecution.  This  is  a  matter  tliat  is 
controlled  by  federal  law  in  accordance  with  the  Hepburn 
Rate  Measure  passed  some  years  ago  by  Congress,  and  also 
by  the  Interstate  Commerce  Commission  The  rate  to  every- 
body must  be  the  rate  published  by  the  railroad  companies, 
and  the  rate  is  the  same  wliether  it  is  paid  in  advance  or 
wlien   the   goods  are  delivered. 


When  Freight  Must 
Be  Prepaid 


If  there  is  no  regularly  ap- 
pointed railroad  freight  agent 
at  the  station  to  which  you 
are  having  your  goods  ship- 
ped, it  is  absolutely  necessary 
for  the  freight  to  be  paid  in  advance;  and  at  the  time  of 
ordering,  if  you  will  tell  us  that  there  is  no  agent  at  your 
station,  we  \vill  tell  you  exactly  how  much  the  freight  will 
be,   and   you  can   send   this  amount   so  tliat   we  can    prepay    it. 

If  there  is  no  agent  at  your  point  and  you  fail  to  advise 
ns  to  that  effect,  we  will  have  no  way  of  knowing  it  and  will 
jiroceed  to  ship  the  goods  when  they  arc  finished.  The  rail- 
road company  would  accept  the  shipment  and  carry  it  tc  the 
nearest  point  where  there  is  an  agent,  and  then  notify  us, 
and  we  would  have  to  notify  you.  In  the  meantime,  they 
would  hold  the  shipment,  which  would  mean  considerable 
trouble,    annoyance   and   delay    for   all    parties   concerned. 


Columbus  Freight 
Rates  Compared  to 
Rates  from 
ler  Points 


Columbus  is  centrally  lo- 
cated, has  many  large  trunk 
lines  running  ilirect  to  all 
parts  of  the  country,  insuring 
not  only  (|uick  ileliveries,  but 
the    freight    rates   are   just   as 

v-v.i      ^  D^:_i.»  '"«■   •'"^   f'"'"   '"loy   "'li"    point 

Other  f  OintS  j^    ,i„.    i'„ited    states   for   the 

same  distance.  In  a  great 
many  catalogues,  especially  those  published  bv  the  Chicago 
catalogue  bouses,  the  rates  are  quoted  from  Chicago.  That 
is  done  for  the  benefit  of  their  western  customers,  but  in 
the  rlescription  of  their  vehicles  you  will  find  that  they  are 
shipped  from  factories  located  at  Cincmnati  or  elsewhere 
where  they  jnirchasi-  goods,  and  of  course,  you  have  to  pay 
fKi^'lit    from   the    point    that   the   vehicle   is   shipped. 


20 


We  explain  this  especially  for  the  benefit  of  our  western 
customers  who  might  be  misled  into  the  belief  that  the 
freight  would  be  less  if  they  ordered  from  Chicago. 


Difference  Between 
Freight  on  Car  Load 
Lots  and  in  Single 
Shipments 


It  is  a  common  practice  of 
retail  dealers  to  say  to  their 
customers:  "I  buy  my  ve- 
hicles in  carloads  and  the 
freight  on  each  one  is  only  a 
trifle,  and  if  you  buy  one 
buggy  from  the  manufacturer, 
the  freight  will  be  a  large 
amount." 


It  is  true  that  buggies  can  be  shipped  in  carload  lots 
cheaper  than  they  can  single,  but  the  difference  isn't  any- 
thing like  the  retail  dealer  would  like  to  make  you  believe 
it  is.  To  illustrate  this,  we  will  take  a  shipping  point  where 
the  variation  between  local  and  carload  shipments  is  as  great 
as  in  any  section  of  the  country.  Take  for  instance,  Char- 
lotte, N.  C.  The  rate  to  this  point  on  a  buggy  per 
hundred  pounds,  crated  in  a  34-inch  crate,  is  $1.38.  Figuring 
the  weight  at  500  lbs.,  it  would  be  $6.90.  The  carload  rate 
is  $1.12  4/S  per  hundred  pounds.  Not  more  than  20  vehicles 
rould  be  crated  in  the  car.  This  would  make  a  total  of 
$112.80  for  20  buggies,  or  an  average  of  $5.64,  so  that  you 
see  the  saving  is  just  $1.26  on  each  buggy  when  shipped  in 
carload   lots. 


The  difference  to  other  points  would  be  proportionate. 
This  small  saving  that  the  dealer  effects  in  freightage  by 
ordering  in  carload  lots  is  only  a  trifle  compared  to  the 
great  big  profit  that  he  makes  in  selling  you  a  buggy. 


him  make  a  notation  on  your  freight  receipt  showing  charges 
for  freight,  which  he  will  give  you,  stating  just  what  the 
tlamages  are:  send  that  receipt  to  us  and  we  will  straighten 
everything    out   immediately    to   your    entire    satisfaction. 

Do  not  fail  to  have  notations  made  on  the  freight  receipt 
if  there  is  any  damage.  The  agent  must  make  that  notation. 
It  is  his  duty,  and  he  has  instructions  from  his  employers 
to  do  so. 


How  Our  Vehicles 
Are  Crated 


In  the  table  of  freight  rates  you 
will  see  that  we  quote  rates  on 
vehicles  in  crates  34  inches  high, 
also  crates  54  inches  high.  About 
75  per  cent  of  our  vehicles  are 
crated  in  34-inch  crates.  They  go  through  safely  this  way 
and  save  our  customers  considerable  freight  expense.  Where 
the  distance  is  not  great  this  does  not  cut  a  great  deal 
of  figure — for  instance,  to  Ohio  points  and  other  states  where 
the  rate  is  low,  we  ship  in  54-inch  crates.  For  great  dis- 
tances, where  the  freight  is  high,  we  invariably  crate  buggies 
in  34-inch  crates. 

Surreys  and  phaetons  must  be  crated  in  54-inch  crates. 
The  matter  of  the  size  of  crate  in  which  your  vehicle  is  to 
be  shipix-d  is  something  that  it  is  best  to  leave  to  our  judg- 
ment. We  take  every  possible  precaution  to  see  that  the 
vehicle  reaches  you  in  the  perfect  condition  that  it  leaves 
our  factory,  and  we  crate  it  in  the  way  that  will  mean  the 
lowest  relative  freight  expense. 

The  railroad  companies  long  gave  us  credit  for  having  the 
strongest    and    most    secure    crates    of    any    carriage    company

L/ellVery  bility    of    making    any    claims 

against  the  railroad  company. 
If  the  vehicle  reaches  your  station  in  a  damaged  condition 
we  guarantee  to  make  it  right  by  either  supplying  new  parts 
or  a  complete  new  vehicle  if  necessary,  and  we  hold  the 
lailroad  company  responsible.  We  can  safely  relieve  you  of 
all  responsibility  and  of  all  risk,  because  of  the  fact  that, 
due  to  our  superior  method  of  crating  our  goods,  there  is 
not  one  vehicle  out  of  500  that  is  even  slightly  damaged  in 
shipping. 

Before  accepting  the  vehicle  from  the  freight  agent,  exam- 
ine it  to  see  whether  or  not  it  has  been  damaged.  You 
usually  can  tell  by  the  condition  of  the  crate,  for  if  the 
paper  covering  is  intact,  th6  chances  are  that  the  job  has 
not  been  damaged:  but  bear  in  mind  that  if  the  goods  are 
damaged,  we  will  hold  the  transportation  company  re- 
sponsible. 

If  you  fir.d  that  they  are  damaged  in  any  way  so  as  to 
sustain    a    loss,    before    you    take    them    from    the    agent,    have 


whose     shipments    they     handled.       In     fact,     our     method     of 
crating  was  recommended  and  adopted  as  being  the  most  secure. 

The  illustration  shows  a  54-inch  crate.  We  cover  all  of 
our  vehicles  with  heavy  paper  to  exclude  the  dust.  The 
shafts    and    poles    are   well    wrapped. 

It  requires  no  particular  skill  to  set  a  vehicle  up.  The 
only  tools  required  are  a  hammer  and  a  wrench.  You  have 
but  to  knock  the  crate  apart,  raise  the  top  and  attach  it,  put 
on  the  wheels,  and  attach  the  shafts. 

When  a  buggy  is  crated  in  a  34-inch  crate  the  wheels  are 
packed  underneath  the  reaches.  The  seat  is  taken  off  and 
turned  over  the  front  end  of  the  body.  The  dash  and 
cushion  are  removed,  and  all  the  loose  parts  or  accessories  are 
tied  in  the  bottom  of  the  body.  The  top  is  crushed  and 
fastened  securely,  being  well  protected  from  any  damage  in 
transit. 

Before  writing  us  that  any  little  parts  are  missing.^  be 
sure  to  examine  the  shipment  very  carefully,  as  all  little 
accessories   are   usually   tied   under    the   cushion.

Our  Split  Hickory  Wheels 


\Vc  build  two  Kradcs  of  IniLTfjies,  our  Square  Deal,  which  is  our  medium  priced  IjuRpy  and  our 
Split  Hickory  Special,  whidi  is  our  hiyh  wrade  huKKy.  We  use  two  difTerent  grades  of  wheels  on 
these  two  different  grades  of  huKKJos.  Our  best  wheel — which  is  the  very  best  that  can  be  made — 
is  used  on  our  Split  Hickory  Special,  and  while  we  do  not  furnish  quite  as  hi^h  ^rade  wheel  on  our 
Square  Deal  Hu>,'Kit's  as  we  do  on  our  Split  Hickory  Specials,  we  furnish  a  wliecl  that  we  fully 
guarantee,  and  a  wheel  that  will  give  the  very  best  of  satisfaction. 

Vheels  are  the  real  foundation  to  a  buggy  or  carriage.  What  a  good  foundation  is  to  your 
house  or  barn  a  good  set  of  wheels  is  to  yt)ur  buggy  or  carriage.  The  very  first  and  really  the 
most  important  thing  necessary  in  the  construction  of  a  good  wheel,  is  good  material.  No  mat- 
ter how  good   the  workmanship,  you  caimot  Iniild  a  good  wheel  without  good  material  to  start  with. 

M.MKRl.M.S — After  the  most  careful,  scientific  investigation  made  by  the 
Forest  Service  of  the  I'nited  States  governnu-nt.  it  h.is  been  dcnionstratcd  by 
exhaustive  tests  of  all  kinds  of  wood  that  there  is  but  one  that  is  suitable  for 
vehicle  wheels,  and  that  is  hickory.  Hickory  tind)cr  is  not  always,  as  a  mat- 
ter of  course,  absolutely  perfect.  It  takes  judRnu-iit  in  the  scliction  of  tiiiilicr 
that  must  be  used,  for  an  old  and  aged  tree  that  has  rtaclu-il  the  point  wlii-ic 
it  has  commenced  to  decline  is  only  tit  for  lirc-\voo<l.  but  it  is  the  niiddle-aKcd 
and  the  second-growth  trees  that  produce  the  kind  of  timber  that  makes  the 
best   wheels. 

The  growing  scarcity  of  good  hickory  timber  is  a  fact  known  to  us  all, 
and  that  makes  it  doubly  hard  for  a  carriage  manufacturer  to  secure  the  kind 
of  hickory  tinsber  necessary  to  make  good  wheels. 

\Vc,  like  other  manufacturers  of  good  vehicles,  have  had  to  provide  for  the 
future  and  have  had  to  invest  thousands  and  thousands  of  dollars  in  tracts 
of  timber  in  order  to  secure  the  right  kind  of  good  hickory  from  which  to 
make  our  wheels.  We  have  been  fortunate  in  this  respect,  and  our  wants  arc 
amply  provided  for,  not  only  for  this  season,  but  for  several  years  to  come 
unless  our  business  should  grow  beyond  our  ex)>ectations.  By  having  a  large 
quantity  of  the  best  hickory  grown  to  select  from,  we  are  able  to  produce 
strictly  first-class  split  hickory  wheels,  and  we  furnish  even  on  dur  Scjuare 
Deal  Buggies  a  better  wheel  than  is  found  on  75  per  cent  of  the  buggies 
made  today  that  are  sold  at  around  $75.00  to  $85.00. 

\N  (iRKM  \>.^H  1 1' — Xext  to  the  material  comes  the  importance  of  good  work- 
manship. After  having  selected  stock  of  uniform  <|uality  and  size,  it  is  neces- 
sary to  match  it  up.  that  is.  spokes,  rims  and  hubs  must  be  matched  and  se- 
lected so  as  to  be  uniform  in  quality  and  size.  To  begin  with,  in  the  manu- 
facture of  wheels,  the  rims  of  all  our  wheels  are  bent  with  the  growth  of  the 
wood  running  from  side  to  side  of  the  stick.  P'ach  growth  of  wood  forms  a 
natural  layer,  one  being  built  upon  the  other,  giving  the  rim  the  same,  or  in 
fact,  even  more  strength  than  wood  made  from  several  pieces  of  wood  glued 
together.      In   a   spoke,    nature   furnishes   the   glue,    which   is   better   than   arti

hickory,  will  not  break  otT  s(|uarc. 
This  illustration  shows  the  quality  of 
timber  used. 


ficial  glue,  ar.d  makes  the  different  layers  of  wood  much  stronger  than  it 
would  be  possible  to  have  them  in  a  manufactured  article.  We.  by  our 
method,  reinforce  nature  in  strengthening  the  rims,  by  inserting  a  screw 
tlirough  the  rim  on  each  side  of  each  sjioke  in  order  to  sustain  the  wood 
from  heavy  and  hard  blows.  When  a  rim  of  this  kind  is  put  on  a  wheel, 
it   cannot  split  if  the  tires  arc  kept  reasonably   tight. 

We  furnish  screwed  rim  wheels  on  all  of  our  Split  Hickory  Special  Top 
Buggies,  Split  Hickory  Special  Runabouts  and  Split  Hickory  Special 
Surreys.  In  a  Sarven  patent  wheel,  which  is  the  strongest  wheel  made, 
the  spokes  are  put  in  the  wheel  in  the  most  careful  and  scientific  man- 
ner. This  mitered  shape  in  the  hub  forms  a  complete  and  perfect  bridge 
around  the  hub.  They  are  then  riveted  in  by  placing  a  rivet  through  the 
flange  between  every  other  spoke.  These  rivets  act  like  a  key-stone  to 
an  arch  and  they  hold  in  the  spokes  so  that  they  cannot  come  loose, 
provided  they  are  f/ropcrly  protected  by  keeping  the  tire  tight.  In  our 
Staggered  spoke  wheels,  the  spokes  are  first  put  through  a  machine  that 
leaves  the  tenon  of  the  spoke  in  the  shape  as  shown  in  the  illustration 
on  this  page,  marked  "Tenon  No.  1."  It  is  then  taken  to  another 
machine  and  compressed  to  the  shape  shown  by  the  illustration  marked 
"Tenon  No.  2."  Immediately  after  being  compressed  the  mitereil  end 
of  the  spoke  is  dipped  into  hot  glue  and  then  driven  into  the  hub.  The 
moisture  of  the  glue  causes  the  mitered  end  of  the  spoke  to  expand, 
forming  a  dove-tail  on  the  inside  of  the  hub  as  shown  in  the  sectional 
view  of  hub  on  this  page.  This  makes  it  impossible  for  the  spokes  to 
come  loose  in  the  nub. 
TIRIN'C,  WHKI-.l  S — ^j,p  jjggj  wheel  ever  made  will  prove  unsatisfactory 
unless  it  is  properly  tired.  This  is  an  important  step  in  the  making  of  a 
good  wheel.  To  keep  the  dish  uniform,  to  get  the  tires  just  tight  enough 
and  not  too  tight,  is  a  delicate  ojieration.  Our  tires  are  heated  before 
they  are  put  on  the  rims.  The  heat  expands  the  tires.  When  they 
cool  off  they  shrink,  and  by  using  the  utmost  care  we  arc  .ible  to  secure 
uniform  results  in  the  tiring  of  our  wheels.  The  holes  for  the  tire  bolts 
in  all  tires,  arc  drilled.  The  cheap  way  and  the  quick  way  is  to  punch 
the  holes,  but  we  drill  all  holes  and  get  better  results  this  way.  We  use 
the  best  round  edge  steel  tire  that  the  mills  can  turn  out  for  us.  It  is  a 
Cautier  steel,  tough,  pliable  and  will  outwear  anything  that  has  ever  been 
used   in    the    way   of  tires   on   vehicle   wheels.

Our  Split  Hickory  Wheels 


BOXING  WHEELS— Unless  a  wheel  is  properly  boxed  it 
will  not  run  true,  it  will  wobble  and  will  not  track.  There 
are  two  ways  of  boring  hubs  of  wheels  and  setting  boxes. 
One  way,  which  is  mostly  used  and  which  we  found  un- 
satisfactory, is  to  center  the  hub  and  set  the  boxes  exactly 
in  the  center  of  the  hub  to  the  fraction  of  an  inch.  The 
other  way  is  to  center  the  wheel,  and  that  is  the  method 
we  use.  It  is  a  little  more  trouble  to  do  this  and  requires 
more  careful  workmanship,  but  it  pays  in  the  long  run, 
for  we  avoid  the  usual  complaint  of  wheels  wobbling  and 
not  tracking.  Another  important  thing  is  to  set  the  bo.xes 
in  tlie  hubs  so  that  they  will  stay  where  they  are  put.  Our 
method  is  to  coat  each  box  with  a  heavy  coating  of  wdiite 
lead.  This  acts  as  a  filler  and  a  cement  between  the  box 
and  the  hub,  and  holds  it  tight  so  that  it  cannot  come  loose 
at  any  time.  These  little  points  of  unusual  care  make  a 
good  wheel,  and  while  it  costs  a  little  more  it  is  the  cheap- 
est  method  in   the   long   run. 

BOLTING  TIRES— Between  each  spoke  we  drill  a  buk- 
through  the  exact  center  of  the  rim,  through  which  wj 
put  a  tire  bolt,  with  a  washer;  run  the  nut  up  tight  and 
square  it.  We  will  not  accept  from  our  wheel  room  any 
wheels  where  'the  holes  are  not  drilled  through  the  center 
and  where  the  nuts  are  not  squared  up,  as  it  is  simply  an 
example  of  poor  workmanship  and  that  is  something  that 
we   do   not  permit  in   our  factory. 

WHEEL  GUARANTEE— The  guarantee  on  nur  wheels  is 
covered  in  our  regular  two-year  guarantee  given  with  each 
vehicle,  but  we  go  even  further  than  that  and  we  posi- 
tively guarantee  every  spoke  in  every  wheel  and  every  rim 
to  be  strictly  first-class,  thoroughly  seasoned  split  hickory, 
and  if  at  any  time  during  the  life  of  the  vehicle,  whether 
in  two  years,  five  years  or  ten  years,  a  wheel  is  broken 
and  the  material  shows  other  than  what  we  have  repre- 
sented it  to  be,  namely,  strictly  first-class,  thoroughly 
seasoned  split  hickory,  we  will  stand  the  return  of  the 
wheel  and  guarantee  to  make  it  good  by  either  repairing  it 
absolutely  free  of  charge  or  furnishing  a  new  wheel  in  its 
place. 

We  further  guarantee  that  the  rims  will  not  split,  that 
the  spokes  will  not  come  loose  in  the  hubs,  providing  the 
tires  are  kept  reasonably  tight.  We  manufacture  vehicles 
that  are  used  in  every  civilized  country  of  the  world,  where 
they  are  subjected  to  heavy,  moist,  salt  air,  to  dry  and  hot 
air,  in  fact,  every  variety  of  temperature  known,  and  to 
manufacture  a  wheel  that  will  give  satisfaction  under  all 
these  conditions  requires  unusual  care  both  in  the  selection 
of  material  and  in  the  workmanship.  Neither  ourselves  nor 
any  one  else  could  manufacture  wheels  suitable  for  certain 
sections.  We,  therefore,  must  make  wheels  that  will  give 
satisfaction  under  any  and  all  conditions,  no  matter  Imw  or

CARE  OF  WHEELS — In  order  to  get  the  best  service  out 
of  your  wheels,  it  is  necessary  for  you  to  co-operate  with 
us  by  giving  reasonable  care  and  attention  to  your  wheels. 
( )r,e  of  the  absolutely  necessary  things  for  you  to  bear 
in  mind  at  all  times,  is  to  keep  the  tires  tight.  We  are 
frequently  asked  by  a  customer  how  often  should  one  have 
the  tires  reset  on  wheels.  There  is  only  one  answer  to 
this  question,  and  that  is,  whenever  they  need  it.  Simi)ly 
because  tires  come  loose  in  time  is  no  indication  whatever 
tliat  the  wheels  are  not  strictly  first-class.  Any  practical 
wheel  maker  will  tell  you  that  this  is  an  absolute  fact. 
You  can  reason  it  out  for  yourself.  When  you  get  your 
new  buggy  the  tires  on  the  wheels  have  been  put  on  in  the 
most  careful  and  workmanlike  manner.  The  tires  were 
set  hot,  as  we  stated  above,  and  were  shrunken  to  the  rim 
just  as  tight  as  they  should  be  to  insure  proper  service. 

Now,  the  nature  of  the  material  of  which  wheels  are 
made  and  the  nature  of  the  steel  are  opposite  to  each  other, 
and  that  cannot  be  changed.  It  is  the  nature  of  wood  to 
shrink  in  hot,  dry  weather.  It  is  the  nature  of  steel  to 
expand  and  grow  larger  in  hot  and  dry  weather,  naturally 
this  is  the  cause  more  or  less  of  tires  coming  loose.  Now, 
cold,  wet,  and  damp  weather  has  a  directly  oi^posite  effect. 
The  wood  expands  and  the  steel  contracts.  You  must  bear 
in  mind  that  it  doesn't  take  very  much  expansion  or  very 
much  contraction  to  draw  the  rims  away  from  the  tires, 
if  they  are  both  working  in  opposite  directions.  Just  a 
slight  shrinkage  or  expansion  will  cause  the  tires  to  be- 
come loose.  Do  not  condemn  your  wheels  because  the  tires 
came  loose.  Now,  we  have  thousands  of  letters  in  our  files 
from  customers  who  say  that  they  have  never  had  to  pay 
out  a  penny  for  resetting  tires  on  our  wheels  after  using 
their  vehicles  for  years,  but  this  is  something  that  we  can- 
not guarantee.  Neither  can  any  other  manufacturer,  and 
if  any  salesman,  retail  dealer,  or  any  one  else  tells  you  that 
a  carriage  manufacturer  will  guarantee  that  the  tires  will 
always  stay  tight,  and  never  have  to  be  reset,  he  is  telling 
you  something  that  is  not  so.  We  could  save  from  $2.00 
to  $3.00  easily  on  each  set  of  wheels  we  put  on  our  buggies, 
and  thereby  reduce  the  price  that  much,  but  realizing  the  im- 
portance of  good  wheels  we  know  that  you  or  any  other 
buggy  user  would  rather  pay  $2.00  or  $3.00  more  and  get 
the  very  best  wheels  that  can  be  made,  and  that  is  what 
we   give   you   on    Split   Hickory   Vehicles.

Split   Hickory   Vehicles   Do    Not   Enter 
Into  The  High  Cost  of  Living 


The  High  Cost  of  Living  is  Due 
to  Too  Many  Hands 

Too  many  in-between  people  living  on  what 
one  man  sells  and  one  man  buys. 

Th-t  all  belongs  to  the  old  order,  before  quick 
transportation,  before  telephones  and  telegrams; 
before  people  let  Uncle  Sam's  Mail  Bags  work 
for  them.  The  manufacturer  was  a  long  way  off 
in  those  days.  He  was  like  a  big  magnate  care- 
fully guarded.  Ycu  had  to  go  to  the  dealer.  The 
dealer  went  to  the  jobber — the  jobber  went  to  the 
manufacturer's  salesmen. 

A  whole  procession   of  people  fed  on  one  article. 

That's  all  changed.  We're  close  together  these 
days  whether  you  live  a 
hundred  or  a  thousand  miles 
off.  I'm  always  right  here, 
on  the  job,  watching  every 
buggy  made. 

No  need  of  your  ap- 
proaching me  through  four 
or  five  other  men.  If  you 
write,  I  personally  read 
your  letter  within  12  to  48 
hours  of  your  sending  it. 
Nobody  stands  between  you 
and  my  entire  factory  out- 
put, more  buggies  than  you 
would  find  in  25  dealers' 
stores. 

I'm  never  going  to  make 
more  buggies  than  I  can 
give  my  personal  individual 

attention.  While  my  business  gets  bigger  every 
year — old  customers  come  back  for  new  buggies 
— new  customers,  friends  of  the  old,  keep  coming 
— still  I  seem  to  grow  with  the  business.  I  keep 
right  on  testing,  examining,  directing,  putting  in 
new  ideas,  improving  styles — making  every  indi- 
vidual buggy  represent  my  highest  conception  of 
what  the  best  buggy  on  earth  ought  to  be.

If  you  should  walk  up  to  my  factory  door  and 
say,  "Phelps,  bring  out  here  the  best  buggy  you 
ever  made,"  I  wouldn't  have  to  go  into  my  fac- 
tory and  look  carefully  over  all  the  buggies  I 
had  finished.  I  would  simply  bring  out  the  buggy 
standing  nearest  the  door  and  point  to  it.  Every 
buggy  I  make  stands  for  my  best  work,  my  best 
materials,  my  best  experience,  and  you  may  de- 
pend on  it,  my  best  is  second  to  none. 

The  very  fact  that  my  Factory  Prices  are 
bringing  more  customers  every  year  shows  the 
satisfaction  people  take  in  buying  right. 

No   matter    how   good    the   article   is    that   you 

buy,    if   you    feel   that   you   paid   too  much   for   it, 

you  don't  take  the   same  keen  pleasure  in  using  it. 

You  always  feel    as    if  the 

"Other  Fellow"  got  the  best 

of  3^ou.   You  never  forget  it. 

My  customers  have  never 

had    that    feeling   and    they 

don't  have  to  take  my  word 

for  the  saving  my  Factory 

Price     makes    them.      They 

see   it,  feel   it,  prove   it   for 

themselves. 

It's  not  a  trifling  saving. 
Not  a  "guess-so"  saving. 
It's  a  genuine,  big,  stare- 
you-in-the-face  hard  cash 
saving.  It's  $25.00  to  $40.00, 
according  to  the  size  and 
style  buggy  you  buy. 

That's  too  big  a  differ- 
ence for  any  man  to  pass 
up  without  investigating.  And  every  man  who 
wants  to  buy  a  buggy  can  prove  any  one  of 
"PHELPS'  MILE  OF  BUGGIES"  free  for  30 
days.

The  Split  Hickory  Vehicles  In  Use  Today  Represent  a  Saving  of 

5  MILLION  DOLLARS 


Can  you  wonder  when  you  look  at  this  1912 
catalogue,  this  magnificent  selection  of  different 
styles,  that  150,000  people  insist  on  having 
PHELPS  make  their  buggies?  Insist  on  buy- 
ing at  factory  prices.  Insist  on  the  opportunity 
of  my  30  Day  Free  Road  Test. 

Now,  there  is  one  great  big  advantage  about 
my  buggies  above  the  other  buggies  that  are 
offered  you,  and  I  want  to  make  this  difference 
very  clear  to  you.  It's  the  difference  between 
my  vehicles  and  harness  and  the  vehicles  and 
harness  sold  by  the  Many 
Department  Mail  Order 
Houses. 

Remember,  when  you 
buy  Split  Hickory  Vehicles 
you  buy  direct  of  the  fac- 
tory at  factory  prices. 
When  you  buy  of  the  Mail 
Order  House  you  buy  of  a 
great  central  dealer  who 
in  turn  buys  of  the  factory 
and  adds  a  profit  to  the 
factory  price.  Remember, 
when  you  buy  SPLIT 
HICKORY  VEHICLES 
you  buy  of  the  manufac- 
turer who  makes  nothing 
else  but  buggies  and  har-  ■— ^^-^— — — ^ 
ness.  His  whole  reputa- 
tion is  at  stake  on  those  articles.  The  big  Mail 
Order  House  handles  thousands  of  articles.  They 
may  sell  at  lower  prices  than  your  home  dealer, 
hut  never  at  factory  prices.  For  they  have  to 
buy  of  the  factory,  pay  the  factory  a  profit  and 
make   a   profit   themselves. 

The  buggy  depaftment  of  the  Mail  Order 
House  is  only  one  branch  of  the  whole  business. 
When  you   buy  Split   Hickory  Vehicles   you  deal 


Five  Million  Dollars  Is 
A  Tremendous  Item 

The  interest  alone  for  one  year  on 
that  saving  is  three  hundred  thou- 
sand dollars.  And  that  is  the  saving 
only  on  the  SPLIT  HICKORY 
VEHICLES  in  use  today.  Eleven 
years  I've  been  selling  direct  to 
the  people  at  factory  prices. 


personally  with  the  maker.  I  stake  my  reputa- 
tion on  every  buggy  I  sell.  Every  buggy  is  just 
one  link  in  my  chain  of  Success.  My  business  is 
only  as  strong  as  the  weakest  link.  I  can't  afford 
a  single  dissatisfied  customer. 

That's  the  reason  I  don't  sell  a  single  buggy 
except  on  my  ?,{)  Day  Free  Road  Test.  That 
test  is  my  guarantee  as  well  as  yours. 

Read  My  Binding  Guarantee  on  Page  14, 
The  manufacturer  who  sells  to  the  Mail  Order 
House  has  no  reputation  at  stake.  His  name 
does  not  appear  on  the 
buggy  or  harness.  No  cus- 
tomer knows  him.  He  can 
cheapen  in  a  score  of  in- 
side ways.  It  doesn't  show 
on  the  surface  always.  It 
doesn't  always  show  the 
first  year.  But  it  does  show 
in  the  life  of  the  bugg}'. 
When  you  buy  my  buggies 
I  stand  personally  re- 
sponsible—  ' 

I    will    not    skimp   in    any 

way,  shape  or  form  on  any 

material  that  goes  into  my 

buggies     and      harness      in 

order    to    "beat"    somebody 

else's   prices.     I    don't   have 

to    "beat"    prices,     for     my 

factory    prices   are   already    naturally    below    the 

dealer's    price    or   the    prices    of  the    Mail    Order 

House   for  the   same   quality. 

There  is  the  big  point — same  quality.  Do  not 
let  appearances  mislead  you. 

Let  my  30-Day  FREE  ROAD  TEST  show  up 
the  weak  points  in  my  buggy  if  there  are  any 
weak  points.     Don't   take  chances.

This  and  our  No.  1247  wacfon  on  page  47  are  two  styles  on  which  we  have  built  up  an  im- 
mense trade  throughout  the  oil  field  regions  where  our  slat  oil  wagons  are  preferred  to  all  oth- 
er makes,  simply  because  they  are  admittedly  better  constructed,  stronger,  easier  riding  and  from 
$20  to  $40  cheaper  than  oil  wagons  of  an  inferior  quality  sold  by  retail  dealers.  These  wagons 
are  made  in  a  way  and  of  a  quality  of  material  that  insures  their  standing  years  of  hard  service 
on  the  bad  roads  of  the  oil  regions.     They  are  light  and  easy  running.     Try  one  out  on  your  roads

Our  No.  1247  Slat  Wagon  is  built  to  meet  the  peculiar  requirements  of  the  oil  fields.  We 
know  from  long  experience  the  way  wagons  of  this  type  must  be  built  to  give  satisfactory  serv- 
ice— that's  the  way  we  build  them.  We  make  them  of  the  finest  materials  we  can  buy— that's  why 
we  don't  have  to  build  them  in  lumber  wagon  proportions — that's  why  they  outwear  nine-tenths  of 
the  oil  wagons  sold  by  others.  We  use  the  finest  axles  made  and  the  GENUINE  SHULER 
ROLLER  BEARING  SPRINGS— that's  why  o\ir  customers  immediately  notice  the  difference  in 
favor  of  our  oil   wagons.     We  are  anxious  to  prove  our  claims.

For  instructions  how  to  order  and  terms,  see  pages  12  and  13, 

We  have  studied  the  construction  of  every  Jump  Seat  Bugg-y  we  could  find,  and  have  greatly 
improved  on  all  other  Jump  Seat  Buggies  made.  This  type  of  buggy  is,  as  a  rule,  subjected  to 
hard  usage — is  heavily  loaded  and  therefore  to  give  satisfactory  service  it  must  be  made  of  the 
best  of  material  or  it  will  become  a  rattle-trap  in  a  short  time.  While  built  in  a  medium  weight 
proportion,  the  quality  of  the  material  is  such  that  it  is  able  to  sustain  a  heavy  load.  In  selecting 
stock  for  it  particular  attention  is  paid  to  the  selection  of  all  gear  woods.  We  use  nothing  but 
second  growth  white  hickory  in  the  wheels  and  gear  throughout.  We  guarantee  it  fully.  There 
are  other  Jump  Seat  Buggies  sold,  which,  while  apparently  a  few  dollars  lower  in  price,  will  be 
found,  because  of  their  inferior  workmanship,  finish  and  general  material,  to  be  30  per  cent  higher 
in  price  than  ours  in  the  long  run.

If  you  want  a  good,  strong,  substantial  buggy,  one  that  will  give  you  good  service  day  in  and 
day  out — an  honest  dollar's  worth  of  buggy  for  every  dollar  you  put  in  it,  you  will  find  it  in  our 
Square    Deal    Buggies. 

We  build  but  two  grades  of  buggies,  our  Square  Deal,  which  is  our  medium  grade  and  our 
Split  Hickory  Special,  which  is  our  highest  grade. 

We  take  it  for  granted  that  you  want  to  limit  your  investment  in  your  new  buggy,  and  don't 
care  to  go  as  high  as  our  Split  Hickory  Special,  and  we  say  to  you  frankly  and  sincerely  that  we 
will  give  you  more  value  for  your  money  in  our  Square  Deal  Buggy  than  you  can  secure  elsewhere. 
Equal   quality  if  bought  from  a  retailer  would  cost  you  at  the  very  least,  $25.00  more. 

Our  Split  Hickory  Factory  has  always  been  a  qualitj^  factory,  and  we  have  never  turned  out 
of  it  a  vehicle  of  anj-  kind  that  we  were  ashamed  to  put  our  name-plate  on  and  back  it  up  with 
our  two-year  guarantee. 

We  use  just  as  much  care  in  manufacturing  our  Square  Deal  Buggies  as  we  do  in  any  vehicle 
we  make,  regardless  of  price,  for  we  want  every  customer — whether  they  buy  a  medium  or  high 
grade  buggy — to  be  perfectly  satisfied  with  it  in  every  way. 

We  know  there  are  cheaper  buggies  advertised,  and  we  know  it  is  possible  for  a  retailer  to 
sell  you  some  kind  of  a  buggy  at  the  same,  or  even  less  than  our  Square  Deal  price,  for  it  is  pos- 
sible to  make  a  much  cheaper  buggy  by  using  cheaper  and  inferior  material,  and  by  slighting  this 
and  that  in  workmanship  and  finish. 

We  do  not  claim  to  make  the  cheapest  buggies,  and  never  did,  for  with  us  quality  is  the  first 
and  price  the  second  consideration. 

We  design  our  vehicles  and  buy  the  kind  of  material  we  know  will  stand  up  and  give  satisfac- 
tion, and  then  figure  the  cost,  basing  our  selling  price  on  the  bare  flat  cost  of  material  and  labor, 
plus  our  one,  and  only  one  manufacturer's  profit. 

When  you  compare  our  Square  Deal  Buggies  with  others,  we  ask  but  one  consideration,  and 
that  is,  compare  quality  as  well  as  price.  If  you  will  do  that  your  decision  cannot  help  but  be  in  our 
favor,  for  the  jobber's  and  retailer's  profit  is  totally  eliminated,  and  j'ou  are  buying  at  net,  bone 
cost  direct  from  the  maker. 

Please  read  carefully  the  description  of  our  Square  Deal  Buggies,  and  notice  the  many  changes 
we  can  make  if  desired  in  the  construction  as  well  as  in  tlie  finish.  No  matter  what  you  want  in 
a  buggy,  whether  light,  medium  or  heavy,  painted  and  upholstered  fancy  or  plain,  with  buggy  seat 
or  automobile  seat,  with  full  rubber,  leather  quarter  or  skeleton  automobile  style  top,  we  are  pre- 
pared to  furnish  it,  and  we  can  please  you  in  style  and  finish  and  satisfy  you  bey.ond  your  expec- 
tations in  quality  and  durability  and  save  you  money.

nish one  style  of  auto  seat,  namely,  our  style  A- 11  Sunken 
Panel  Seat.  We  show  four  different  styles  of  automobile 
seats,  any  one  of  which  we  can  furnish  on  any  Square  Deal 
Buggy  in  place  of  regular  buggy  seat,  at  the  following  extra

Sunken  Panel  Automobile  seat,  $10.00;  Style  A-2,  Auto- 
mobile seat,  $8.00.  Where  some  particular  style  regularly 
furnished  with  automobile  seat  is  wanted  with  regular 
buggy  seat,  we  allow  this  same  amount  in  furnishing  buggy 
seat  instead   of  auto  seat. 

WHEELS — Second-growth  split  hickory,  thoroughly  sea- 
soned stock,  carefully  inspected  and  tested,  with  rock  elm 
hubs — good  deep  felloes.  Tired  with  M-inch  round  edge

on  1-inch  wheels,  and  nothing  lighter.  We  do  not  recom- 
mend for  our  buggies  any  heavier  than  1-inch  wheels,  for 
that  is  plenty  heavy  enough  with  the  quality  of  our  wheels 
to  do  any  work  required  of  thsm.  Rubber  tires  furnished 
on  any  Square  Deal  Buggy  in  place  of  steel  tires  at  the

swedged,  with  axle  beds  cemented  and  fitted  perfectly  to

furnish — as  each  illustration  shows — medium  arch  or  drop 
axles  as  desired.  Where  regular  arch  or  drop  axles  are 
shown,  we  can  furnish  instead,  high  arched  axles,  say 
4^Mnches,  instead  of  regular,  for  $2.50  extra.  Where 
something  especially  heavy  is  wanted  we  can  furnish

nished than  above  at  an  extra  cost  of  $1.00.  For  in- 
structions how  to  order  correct  width  of  track,  see  page  12. 

SPRINGS — Elliptic  style,  3-plate  front,  4-plate  rear,  is  regu- 
lar on  most  Square  Buggies.  These  springs  are  oil 
tempered  and  graded  and  tested  and  very  easy  riding.  We 
can  furnish,  where  wanted,  instead  of  regular  elliptic 
sprmgs,  Brewster  and  king  coil  side  bar  combination  springs, 
for  $1.00  extra,  or  long  easy  riding  Amesbury  side  springs, 
$1.50  extra.  Most  of  our  Square  Deal  Buggies  are  illus- 
trated with  Bailey  loops.  Where  wanted  we  can  furnish 
wooden  spring  bar  instead  of  Bailey  loops  without  change 
in  price.  Where  extra  heavy  springs  are  wanted  on  a 
wide  26-inch  body,  we  recommend  4  and  5-plate  springs 
which    cost    extra,    $1.00. 

TOP — All  Square  Deal  Buggies  are  priced  with  two  kinds 
of  tops,  full  rubber  and  leather  quarter.  Both  tops  are 
made  exactly  alike  except  one  is  all  rubber  and  the  other 
has  leather  quarters  and  leather  backstays.  Our  tops  are 
waterproof.  Have  good  heavy  waterproof  side  curtains; 
back  curtain  is  lined  and  top  is  lined  with  heavy  wool 
cloth.  Lining  in  top  is  made  to  match  upholstering  in  seat 
and  back.  Where  blue  trimmings  are  ordered,  blue  lining 
in  top  is  furnished,  and  the  same  applies  to  other  colors. 
We  have  a  great  many  customers  who  prefer  rubber  top 
to  a  leather  quarter  top.  One  reason  for  this  is  that  the 
rubber  will  never  crack  in  cold  weather  as  leather  some- 
times will,  and  a  good  rubber  top  such  as  we  furnish  on 
our  Square  Deal  Buggies  will  give  excellent  satisfaction 
and  really  wear  longer  than  the  cheap  leathe'r  quarter  tops 
that  are  furnished  on  some  buggies.  On  most  all  Square 
Deal  Buggies  we  show  regularly  a  3-bow  top.  Where 
wanted  we  can  furnish  4-bow  top  without  extra  charge  or 
2^  or  3 1/2 -bow  handy  top.  Where  a  full  leather  top  is 
wanted  with  rubber  side  curtains  instead  of  leather  quarter 
top,  the  additional  charge  is  $4.50,  and  if  leather  side  cur- 
tains are  wanted  instead  of  rubber,  the  additional  charge 
is  $4.50.  We  will  furnish  fancy  pinking  and  stitching  in 
top,  25  cents  extra.  Will  put  mirrors  in  back- 
stays for  50  cents  extra.  Fancy  arm  loops  in  top,  75  cents 
extra.  Oval  lights  in  side  curtains,  75  cents  extra.  Leather 
covered  bow  sockets  furnished  in  place  of  japanned,  $2.75 
extra. 

SKELETON  TOP— This  is  a  style  top  that  is  becoming 
very  popular  lately,  especially  on  automobile  seats.  We 
refer  you  to  page  61,  where  we  fully  describe  our  skeleton 
top  for  Square  Deal  Buggies,  and  quote  extra  cost  for 
same.  Please  bear  in  mind  that  the  tops  on  Square  Deal 
Buggies  are  full  length;  have  good  deep  quarters;  full  width 
backstays;  are  well  lined  and  made  throughout;  are  water- 
proof and  guaranteed  to  give  the  best  of  satisfaction.

showing  side  curtains  on,  and  the 
window  lights  that  are  furnished  in 
rear  and  side  curtains.  These  win- 
dow lights  are  made  of  Mica.  No- 
tice that  the  curtains  are  fitted  up

This  shows   inside  view  of   our  skeleton  automobile  top  as  it

Please  Read  Carefully  the  Description  of  Top  Given  Below 


THIS  SKELETON  AUTOMOBILE  STYLE  TOP  FURNISHED  ON  ANY  SQUARE  DEAL 
TOP  BUGGY  IN  PLACE  OF  REGULAR  RUBBER  TOP,  $3.00  EXTRA. 


We  call  attention  with  a  great  deal  of  pleasure  to  the  Skeleton  Automobile  Style  Top  illus- 
trated above.  We  have  been  furnishing  this  style  top  on  both  our  Square  Deal  and  Split  Hickory 
Special  line  of  buggies  for  several  years  and  have  a  great  many  customers  virho  would  not  use 
any  other  kind  of  top.  It  is  made  especiaiV  strong  and  substantial— is  unlined,  which  means  that 
it  is  easy  to  keep  clean.  The  material  is  heavy  32  oz.  rubber  duck  for  roof,  back  curtain,  side 
quarters,  backstays  and  side  curtains.  Side  curtains  are  carefully  fitted  so  as  to  make  the  top 
absolutely  waterproof.  We  have  proven  by  actual  use  that  a  top  of  this  kind  is  better  than  the 
ordinary  leather  quarter  or  full  rubber  top— it  looks  better— especially  on  an  automobile  seat— 
than  the  regular  top,  and  it  will  wear  longer  and  is  a  better  protection  from  the  rain,  wind  and 
storm.  As  the  illustration  shows,  we  furnish  large  Mica  window  lights  in  back  and  side  curtains, 
joints  are  curved  and  there  is  an  extra  extension  curved  joint  on  the  outside.  Bow  sockets  are 
bent  auto  style.  This  top  is  regularly  furnished  on  No.  1255  E,  but  can  be  furnished  on  any  other 
automobile  seat  buggy  at  the  price  quoted,  namely,  $3.00  above  the  regular  price  of  rubber  top 
on  any  Square  Deal  Buggy.  If  you  are  interested  in  this  top  and  want  to  see  a  sample  of  the  ma- 
terial  of  which   it  is   made,   write  us,   we  will  be  glad    to  forward  you  a  sample  free. 


YOU  WILL  MAKE  NO  MISTAKE  IN  ORDERING  YOUR  BUGGY 
WITH  ONE  OF  THESE  TOPS 


You  will   be  more  than  pleased  with   it  and  consider  it  well  worth  the  slight  difference  in  cost 
over  the  ordinary  top.

This  is  the  largest,  heaviest,  roomiest  and  strongest  buggy  made  by  us  or  any  other  manufac-

buggy  and  intended  for  use  on  the  roughest  roads,  it  runs  very  easy  and  is  not  too  large  for  one 
horse  to  handle.  While  the  springs  are  made  for  extra  heavy  carrying  capacity,  they  are  graded  to

What  Our  Customers  Think  of  Our  Split  Hickory  Special

OntUiiun:— On  luiu-  2i.  IW).  I  received  one  of  your 
Split  Hickory  Special  UuKKies  with  I'niii.  cushion  ruhbcr 
tires,  and  it  has  jiiven  entire  satisfaction.  It  has  luin  in 
use  for  the  past  two  years,  hut  it  does  not  look  .ns  if  it  had 
been  used  more  than  one  year,  and  the  tires  are  still  on  it 
and  can  run  many  more  miles  yet.  I  have  heard  several 
people  sav  thcv  were  the  best  tires  that  have  ever  been 
around  here.  I  don't  believe  there  is  a  better  buRKy  made 
than  your  Split  Hickorv  Special.  I  am  ihinkinR  of  biiyinK 
another   one   this   fall,   and   if   1    do  it   will   be  a  Split    Hickory. 

Whenever  I  have  an  opportunity.  I  will  speak  a  good  word 
for  you.  Yours  truly,

which   ended   in    Mrs.    Ilarlman    getting   one   of  your   "Special

This    time    I    want    a    "Milk    Wagon."      In    your    catalogue

Mr.   H.  C.   Phelps,  Pres., 

The  Ohio  Carriage  Mfg.  Co.,  Columbus,  Ohio. 
Dear  Sir: — The  buggy  bought  of  you  seven  years  ago  has 
given  very  good  satisfaction  and  also  thr  runabout  bought  of 
you  three  vears  ago.  I  can  say  that  you  certainly  use  good 
material  in  building  your  vehicles,  as  I  had  a  young  horse 
run  awav  with  me  last  summer  and  upset  me  in  the  run- 
about, then  fell  down  on  the  shafts  without  doing  any 
damage   to   speak   of. 

Knowing  you  will  give  this  letter  your  best  attention, 
and   wishing   you   success.   I   am.  Yours   truly,

H.   C.    Phelps.    Pres.. 

The  Ohio  Carriage  Mfg.  Co.,  Columbus.  Ohio. 

Dear  Sir: — Your  letter  received  today,  and  as  I  am  an  old 

customer    of    yours,    having    ordered    three    buggies    from    you 

in   the   last   five  years,   not  saying  I   am   wearing   them   all   out 

that  quick,  as  the  boys  each   have   one  of  your   vehicles,   and 


they  certainly  speak  good  for  themselves,  as  they  arc  so 
strong  and  lasting.  My  newest  buggy  from  you  has  been 
out  two  years  in  July  and  1  am  surprised  that  it  has  kept 
so  well,   for  all   of  the   use. 

Please  send  me  your  latest  catalogue  in  1911  and  it  is 
nearly  possible  that  I  can  work  up  a  new  order  or  probably 
two   orilers   around   here   for   you. 

Can  you  furnish  me  a  good  set  of  breeching  harness, 
suitable  for  farm  use,  so  that  the  brecchings  can  be  re- 
moved if  not  needed   for  fichl   use  ? 

Yours    respectfully,

Dear  Sir: — We  received  our  buggy  ami  harness  all  right. 
We  think  they  are  fine.  We  have  driven  out  several  times 
in  it  and  every  one  who  sees  it  thinks  we  have  saved  at  least 
$40.00  and  they  say  we  could  not  have  bought  the  harness 
for   less  than   $20.00  here. 

Well,    we    must    say    that    we    are    more    than    pleased    and 
thank   you   for  your  courteous   treatment    and   your    fair   deal-

quite  so  much  as  I  expected.  The  crate  and  buggy  in  fine 
shape,   considering  its   long   trip. 

Am  highly  pleased  with  the  rig.  Doji't  think  the  work- 
manship can  be  beat.  It  is  neat  and  snug  and  runs  like  a 
sewing   machine,  and  discounts  anything  offered  here  at  $100. 

Thanking  you  for  your  good  treatment,  and  hoping  that 
I  may  be  able  to  help  you  do  more  business  at  this  end, 
I   am.  Yours   very   truly,

Gentlemen: — I  am  glad  to  say  I  do  not  need  a  new  buggy 
at  this  time.  1  am  still  using  my  Split  Hickory  buggy  that 
I  bought  from  you  two  years  ago.  It  is  almost  as  good  as 
new  and  has  the  same  set  of  rubber  tires  on  it  as  when 
I  bought   it.  Yours  truly,

Dear  Sir: — Rei)lying  to  your  letter  of  Thursday,  I  beg  to 
state  that  I  intend  to  send  you  an  order  for  a  buggy  the 
last  of  this  month.  I  bought  my  last  buggy  of  you  when  I 
lived  in  Midland,  about  8  years  ago,  and  have  not  wore  it 
out  yet.  so  you  can  tell  whether  or  not  it  has  been  a  good 
one.  The  reason  I  do  not  want  it  until  some  time  in  May 
is  on  account  of  the  bad  roads,  and  my  old  buggy  will  do. 
I    remain.  Yours   truly.

Ohio  Carriage    Mfg.   Co.,   Columbus.   Ohio. 

Gentlemen: — Yesterday  my  "Special  Buggy"  came,  arid  I 
am  delighted  with  it.  \Ve  set  it  up  this  morning  and  it  is 
certainly  stylish,  well  finished  and  seems  to  be  the  equal  of 
the   higher   [Triced   vehicles   I    looked   at   here. 

Last  night  I  saw  one  of  your  buggies  that  has  been  in 
constant  use  for  some  four  years  and  it  looks  very  well  yet. 
and  I  know  it  has  had  much  hard  use  over  rutty,  frozen 
and  muddy  roads,  and  aside  from  the  tire  tightening  there 
has  not  been  one  bit  of  expense  for  repairing. 
Will  send  you  an  order  for  a  harness  soon. 
Yours  truly,

Split  Hickory  Wrought  Iron  Gear 

P'urnished  on  all  of  our  Split  Hickory  Special  Buggies  and  Runabouts.     The  best  gear  that  can  pos- 
sibly be  made.     Fifthwheel  is  full  12  inch,  rear  circle  Norway  wrought  iron  guaranteed  for  life. 
Is  made  without  a  weld — cannot  rattle — cannot  break.    If  any  part  of  our  wrought  iron  fifth- 
wheel   ever  breaks  at  any  time,  we  will  replace  it  free  of  charge.    The  tensile  strength 
is  60,000  pounds  to  the  square  inch.     Kingbolt  is  double  locked  in  head  block  plate 
taking  off  all  the  strain.     Not  a  working  part  turns  on  a  nut  to  loosen  it. 


Full  12-inch  rear  circle  wrought  iron  fifthwheel. 


Every  buggy  user  knows  and  realizes  the  im- 
portance of  a  strong,  reliable  gear  on  a  buggy. 
Ninety  out  of  a  hundred  of  the  accidents  that  are 
caused  in  runaways  and  otherwise  are  the  cause 
of  defective  gear  parts.  It  is  an  easy  matter  to 
break  an  ordinary  fifthwheel  and  tear  the  front 
part  of  the  gear  loose  from  the  body,  throwing 
out  the  occupants  of  the  buggy,  and  in  many 
cases  causing  serious  injury  and  death.  We  have 
adopted  for  our  split  Hickory  Special  the  best 
fifthwheel  that  money  and  skill  can  produce.  You 
can  rest  assured  that  you  are  absolutely  safe  in 


a  Split  Hickory  Special  when  furnished  on  our 
wrought  iron  gear.  There  is  no  possible  chance 
of  breaking  it.  As  stated  above,  the  fifthwheel  is 
made  without  a  weld.  It  is  a  solid  drop  wrought 
iron  forging.  It  has  cost  us  a  great  deal  of 
money  to  perfect  our  wrought  iron  gear,  and  it  is 
a  great  deal  more  expensive  than  other  gears 
that  we  could  furnish  on  this  buggy,  but  we  are 
sure  that  you — or  any  other  buggy  user — would 
rather  pay  a  little  more  for  your  buggy  and  get 
the  best  gear  that  can  be  put  on  it. 


Please    remember  that    our  Wrought    Iron   Gear  is    furnished    on   all  Split 
Hickory   Special   Buggies   and  Runabouts 


3-prong    kingbolt,    solid    Norway    wrought    iron. 


Nothing  but  the  best  Norway  wrought  iron  can 
be    twisted    and    hammered    cold    like    this.

OUR  1912 

SPLIT 
HICKORY 
SPECIAL 


Automatic  Ball  Bearing  Axles 


llilLi'-liJ 


Furnished  on  any  Split  Hickory  Vehicle  at  the  following  price: 

On  any  vehicle  in  place  of  regular  1^  inch  axles   $10.00 

On  any  vehicle  in  place  of  regular  1  iV  inch  axles  $15.00 

dti  same  as  regular  axles — oil  once  in  six  months — all  in  one  part — no  adjustment  necessary — balls 

cannot  come  out  and  cannot  break — no  repairs  ever  needed — just  put  the  wheel  on,  screw  up 

the  axle  nut  and  it  is  ready  to  run — two  washers  keep  the  box  tight  and  as  there  is 

no  friction  the  washers  do  not  wear  out. 

The  above  is  an  illustration  of  our  automatic  ball  bearing-  axle  which  we  are  prepared  to  furnish 
on  any  of  our  Split  Hickory  Vehicles  in  place  of  our  regular  high  collar  long  distance  axles,  at  the 
prices  quoted  above. 

We  have  been  furn.jhing  ball  bearing  axles  to  our  customers  for  a  number  of  years,  and  in 
every  case  they  have  given  excellent  satisfaction  and  every  customer  has  considered  them  well  worth 
the    additional    cost. 

After  experimenting  with  a  number  of  different  styles  of  ball  bearing  axles  we  adopted  the  auto- 
matic for  the  reason  that  it  is  the  best  and  the  simplest  ball  bearing  axle  on  the  market  to-day. 
Its  simplicity  consists  in  the  fact  that  there  are  no  parts  for  vehicle  users  to  bother  with 

Your  vehicle  comes  to  you  with  the  automatic  axle  on  just  the  same  as  with  a  regular  axle,  and 
all  that  you  have  to  do  is  to  put  in  the  two  small  leather  washers  that  are  sent  with  the  axle,  slip  on 
the  wheel,  tighten  up  the  axle  nut  which  is  the  same  as  any  ordinary  axle  nut,  hitch  to  your  job  and 
drive  away.  The  axle  nut  cannot  be  drawn  up  too  tight,  that  is  impossible  for  the  reason  that  it 
draws  tight  to  the  shoulder  and  cannot  go  any  further,  so  there  is  nothing  to  bind  and  no  adjust- 
ment to  make. 

The  balls  and  the  cones  are  made  of  vanadium  steel  cut  out  of  a  solid  block  of  steel  and  not 
pressed,  as  is  the  case  with  the  cones  furnished  on  most  ball  bearing  axles.  This  steel  is  especially 
prepared  and  treated  for  this  purpose,  and  while  this  is  an  expensive  operation  and  makes  it  cost 
four  times  as  much  as  the  cheaper  steel,  it  is  well  worth  it  for  the  reason  that  it  cannot  wear  out. 


Some  of  the  Special   Points  of  Merit  of  our  Automatic 
Ball  Bearing  Axle 


Reduction  of  draft — means  a  saving  on  your  horse  of  from 
25     to    50    per    cent. 

No  hot  boxes — The  automatic  is  absolutely  water  and  dust 
proof. 

No  adjustment  necessary — Oil  just  the  same  as  the  old 
style    axle. 

No  wear  on  the  axle  itself — All  parts  that  are  ordinarily 
subject  to  wear  are  alloy  chrome  vanadium  steel,  as  hard 
as    glass. 

The  balls  used  are  specially  treated  and  are  tempered 
alloy    vanadium    steel,    positively    indestructible. 

There  are  no  retaining  rings  so  that  there  is  no  ad- 
justment   on    the    balls. 

When  axle  box  is  placed  in  wheel  there  is  nothing  fur- 
ther to  do  and  no  adjustment  ever  can  be  made  or  is 
necessary. 

Guaranteed  with  proper  care  to  outwear  any  vehicle,  and 
proper  care  means  simply  oiling  occasionally  when  the  axle 
runs  dry,   which   is  very  seldom. 


It  means  a  saving  in  feed  bills  and  satisfaction  to  the 
user  to  know  that  he  is  putting  the  least  possible  draft  on 
his    horse. 

Guaranteed  by  ourselves  and  guaranteed  by  the  axle 
maker. 

You  needn't  hesitate  to  order  a  Split  Hickory  vehicle  with 
the  automatic  ball  bearing  axles,  fearing  that  you  will  have 
trouble,  for  there  is  absolutely  no  possible  chance  of  having 
any  trouble  with  a  set  of  these  axles.  They  will  give  you 
the    best    of    satisfaction    at    all    times. 

ESPECIALLY  DESIRABLE  FOR  SURREYS 

A  heavy  family  carriage  can  be  handled  easily  by  one 
ordinary  sized  horse  when  equipped  with  automatic  ball 
bearing  axles.  This  has  been  tried  and  tested  time  and

Split  Hickory  Special  Combination 

Winter  and  Summer  Top  Buggy 

The  buggy  for  all  seasons.  Closed  up,  wind,  cold  and  storm-tight  almost  instantane- 
ously. Opened  up  just  as  quick  to  let  in  sunshine  and  air  from  all  four  sides.  It  is  a  bug- 
gy that  makes  it  possible  to  travel  at  your  pleasure.  Built  on  our  famous  wrought  iron 
gear.  Tried  and  tested  in  every  way.  It  carries  our  two-year  guarantee.  Rides  extreme- 
ly easy — runs  very  lightly.  Only  weighs  48  pounds  more  than  an  ordinary  top  buggy. 
Equipped  with  electric  lights  if  wanted.  See  special  description  of  electric  light  equip- 
ment. 

SPFXIAL  POINTS  OF  MERIT 


Large  glass  front  17  x  29  inches.  Paneled  doors — large  glass  door  lights  19  x  12 
inches — sliding  doors  perfectly  adjusted — 30  oz.  heavy  rubber  rear  curtain  to  roll  up  fit- 
ted with  8  X  12  inch  mica  window — handsome  robe  rail  inside — pockets  in  front  for  car- 
rying small  articles — clear  road  vision  on  both  sides — all  glass  windows  are  of  double 
strength  and  rubber  cushioned — no  jar — no  rattle — plenty  of  room  inside — seat  measures 
36  inches  on  top  of  cushion — split  hickory  special  shafts  with  Twentieth  Century  bracing 
— Bradley  quick  shifting  shaft  couplings — oil  tempered  and  tested  four  and  four  plate 
springs — soft  and  comfortable  spring  cushion  and  spring  back — padded  boot  over  rear 
— beautifully    and    substantially   painted — elegantly    upholstered. 


OUR  COMBINATION  BUGGY  i^  the  re- 
sult of  nearly  three  years'  careful  study  and  ex- 
perimenting?. We  tried  and  tested  nearly  every 
storm  bujjfjiy  made — picked  out  the  good  points 
and  discarded  the  bad.  The  result  is  our  Split 
Hickory  Special  Combination  Buggy,  which  has 
more  good  sensible  features  than  all  the  rest 
combined,  and  our  price  is  just  about  $40.00  less 
than  the   next  best  one. 

One  great  big  desirable  feature  of  ours  is  its 
lightness,  and  the  big  undesirable  feature  of 
most  others  is  their  heaviness.  A  buggy  so 
heavy  and  clumsy  that  it  takes  two  horses  to 
pull  it  would  be  a  white  elephant  on  your  hands. 
Our  buggy  weighs  just  48  lbs.  more  than  the 
ordinary  top  buggy,  and  that  means  that  our 
combination  buggy  equipped  with  our  easy  run- 
ning 2,000-mile  dust-proof  axles  will  run  easier 
than  the  ordinary  buggy  with  common  axles. 

Our  automatic  ball  bearing  axles  would  only 
cost  you  $10.00  extra  on  this  buggy,  and  thej- 
would  certainly  reduce  the  draft.  Please  read 
the   description   of   these   axles   on   page   77. 

Another  valuable  feature  is  the  concealed 
slides  for  doors.  The  ordinary  outside  slides  get 
clogged  up  with  mud,  snow  and  ice,  while  our 
slides  are  protected.  P.oth  doors  are  fitted  with 
brass  handles  and  inside  patent  locks.  There 
isn't  a  single  valuable  or  desirable  feature  on 
any  storm  buggy  that  is  not  embodied  in  the 
construction  of  ours.  Here  is  just  one  of  the 
many  little  points  of  superiority,  and  that  is, 
our  glass  windows  are  all  rubber  lined  and  cush- 
ioned, while  others  are  set  in  putty,  which  will 
pop  out  in  a  short  time  and  then  the  rattle  be- 
gins. 


Most  buggies  of  this  kind  have  cheap  drill 
door  panels — ours  has  solid  wood  panels, 
screwed    in — not    nailed. 

A  buggy  of  this  kind  to  be  used  in  all  kinds 
of  weather  and  over  all  kinds  of  roads  must  be 
built  right  to  give  satisfaction.  The  material 
and  workmanship  must  be  the  best,  and  in  our 
No.  1277  L  you  get  the  best  that  money  can  buy 
and   save   money,   too. 

Our  combination  buggy  is  packed  and  crated 
very  carefully  and  goes  in  a  54  inch  crate,  tak- 
ing the  same  freight  rate  as  an  ordinarj"^  buggy. 
Every  one  of  our  customers  now  owning  our 
No.  1277  L  Combination  Buggy  say  they  would 
not  be  without  it  for  twice  the  cost.  You  will 
say   the   same  after  you  try  it. 

ELECTRIC  LIGHT  EQUIPMENT 

Be  up-to-date  and  have  your  combination  win- 
ter and  summer  buggy  equipped  with  electric 
lights.  It  doesn't  cost  much  and  you  will  get 
pleasure  and  satisfaction  out  of  it. 

The  full  equipment  is  four  lights,  two  in 
front  and  one  in  the  rear,  and  one  inside  dome 
light  fastened  in  the  center  of  roof.  .Ml  lamps 
except  dome  light  are  combination  oil  burning 
and  electric.  They  work  on  a  three  way  switch 
so  you  can  turn  them  all  on  if  desired,  or  the 
front,  rear  or  dome  li.ght  individually.  The  cur- 
rent is  furnished  by  six  dry  cell  batteries  placed 
on  the  floor  under  the  scat.  The  wiring  is  not 
in  the  way  and  hardly  noticeable.  You  can 
order  the  full  equipment  or  part  of  it,  but  there 
is  so  little  <lifFercnce  in  the  cost  it  is  best  to 
have  all  four  lights.  New  batteries  can  always 
be  secured  at  most  any  hardware  store  or  at 
any  auto  supply  store  or  garage  ai  a  slight  cost.

DESCRIPTION  OF  TOP 


Our  Split  Hickory  Storm  Top  is  made  the  same  as  the  tops 
used  on  automobiles.  It  is  an  unlined  skeleton  top,  made 
with  good  deep  quarters  and  backstays  and  made  of  32-oz. 
heavy  English  Rubber  duck,  the  same  material  that  we  use  in 
making  our  skeleton  auto  top  as  illustrated  and  described  on 


This  shows  top  with    rear  side  curtains   on. 
off  and  back  curtain  rolled  up  if  desired. 


These  can  be  taken 


page  78.  This  top  is  3-bow  pattern  without  any  joints  or 
nuts  of  any  kind.  The  front  bow  socket  is  made  to  form  a 
stiffener  or  arm  to  hold  the  top  in  shape  when  it  is  set  up. 
This  socket  is  made  detacliahle  so  that  when  the  top  is  laid 
back  it  can  be  laid  back  flat  by  simply  shifting  the  front 
short  bows  to  the  lug  attached  to  the  middle  of  bow  socket. 

As  the  illustration  shows,  there  arc  two  side  cur- 
tains on  each  side  and  one  front  curtain,  all  of  which 
are  detachable.  Tlic  rear  curtain  is  made  so  that  it 
can  be  rolled  up,  thereby  leaving  the  top  entirely  open. 
The  windows  are  made  large  and  of  mica,  whicli  is 
the  best  material  for  this  purpose.  The  window  in 
I  ear  curtain  is  6x9  inches,  the  three  side  curtain  win- 
dows are  8x11  inches,  the  front  curtain  window  is 
14x14  inches.  These  windows  are  plenty  large  enough 
to  permit  the  occupants  of  the  vehicle  to  see  on  all 
sides   in   the  front  and  in   the   rear. 

The  top  is  held  rigid  in  front  by  a  brass  cable  fast- 
ened to  the  front  of  top  and  to  a  ring  in  the  center 
of  dash.  This  holds  the  top  in  shape  and  docs  not 
permit  of  its  wrinkling.  The  side  curtains  and  front 
curtain  can  be  put  on  from  the  inside  of  the  buggy 
without  getting  out  into  the  mud,  if  desired.  These 
curtains  are  attached  to  each  other  and  to  the  top  by 
means  of  brass  Brewster  curtain  fasteners,  which  are 
neat  in  appearance,  strong  and  operate  quickly.  There 
is  no  rattle  to  this  top  and  the  material  of  wliich  if  is 
made  insures  its  durability,  and  also  that  it  will  shed 
rain,  snow  or  sleet  in  the  hardest  storm.  If  desired, 
we  will  l)c  glad  to  send  a  small  sample  of  the  material 
of  which  the  top  is  made.  This  style  top  has  proven 
very  popular  with  our  customers  who  want  protection 
from  cold  and  storm,  but  do  not  want  a  regular  pan- 
eled storm  buggy.  It  is  cheaper  and  answers  every  pur- 
I>ose,  and  we  have  no  hesitancy  in  recommending  it  to 
you  and  guaranteeing  that  it  will  give  perfect  satis> 
faction.

page  102,  except  it  is  made  with  cut-under  body,  which  makes  the  difiference  in  the  price.  Cut- 
under  bodies  are  preferred  by  many,  because  they  permit  of  shorter  turning.  There  is  no  differ- 
ence in  the  strength,  as  our  cut-under  bodies  are  heavily  reinforced  over  the  wheel  house  with 
iron  straps  to  insure  great  strength.

Why  Should  He  Put  the  Money  in  His 
Pocket  When   I  Can  Keep  It  in  Yours 


If  the  dealer  could  do  you  any  real  service  in 
selling  you  a  buggy  I  wouldn't  be  selling  direct 
to  the  people  at  factory  prices.  I  never  would 
have  sold  150,000  Split  Hickory  Vehicles.  They 
would  have  bought  of  the  dealers. 

If  the  dealer  could  do  anything  for  you  that 
I  can't  do,  I  would  today  be  selling  to  the  dealer. 
I  would  get  just  as  much  from  him  for  my 
buggies  as  from  the  people  direct  and  I  could 
sell  in  quantity  instead  of  buggy  by  buggy  in- 
dividually. 

But  what  can  the  dealer  do  for  you? 

Point  by  point  let  us  put  down  the  facts.  You 
can  take  time  to  read  these  facts.  They're  all 
in  your  interests — your  saving. 

In  the  first  place  the  dealer  would  get  from 
you  $25  to  $40  more  money  than  my  factory 
price. 

What  would  he  do  with  that  money?  Improve 
the  buggies?  No,  after  paying  his  own  expenses 
he  would  pocket  the  profit. 

Would  he  keep  you  posted  every  year  by  show- 
ing you  the  latest  buggies — all  the  new  and  im- 
proved styles?  No,  the  dealer  shops  and  buys 
where  he  can  get  the  biggest  bargain.  If  I  sold 
to  the  dealer  I  would  first  have  to  cheapen  my 
buggies  so  as  to  make  my  buggies  as  cheap  as 
the  other  factories  who  sell  at  lower  prices.  The 
dealer  might  show  you  one  or  two  or  three 
new  styles,  the  rest  would  be  old  and  they'd  have 
to  stay  in  his  shop  until  sold,  getting  dull  and 
unseasonable. 

Would  the  dealer  let  you  test  any  buggy  you 
wanted  any  way  you  wanted  to  test  it  for  an 
entire  month?  Did  you  ever  know  a  dealer  who 
sold  his  buggies  on  such  a  liberal  plan? 

Well,  then,  just  what  is  the  dealer's  service  to 
you  in  buying  a  buggy?  Where  is  his  claim  to 
your  trade? 

Aren't  you  entitled  to  buy  where  you  get  the 
biggest  selection — the  latest  models,  the  lowest 
prices — the  best  offer — the  most  sure  guarantee 
—the  chance  to  TEST  THE  BUGGY  YOU  SE- 
LECT 30  DAYS  to  be  certain  it's  the  right 
buggy  for  you? 

Then — a  large  percentage  of  my  customers 
have    personal    tastes     in    their    buggies.       They 

LOOK   ON    PAGE  10.      SEE  WHERE    SPLIT 


want  their  own  ideas  carried  out.  Can  the  dealer 
make  your  buggy  to  order  without  its  costmg 
you  any  more  than  the  ready-made  buggy?  Cer- 
tainly not. 

There  are  a  whole  lot  of  things  you  can  buy 
better  of  a  dealer  than  by  sending  to  the  factory, 
but  when  it  comes  to  a  big  thing  like  a  buggy 
there's  enough  money  in  the  transaction  to  war- 
rant your  dealing  direct  with  the  factory.  You 
wouldn't  send  to  the  factory  for  a  pound  of  nails. 
You'd  prefer  to  pay  the  dealer  a  little  more  for 
the  convenience  of  his  carrying  the  goods  in 
stock,  but  a  buggy  is  a  totally  different  proposi- 
tion. 

When  it  comes  to  paying  the  dealer  $25  to  $40 
—and  that's  the  actual  saving  you  make  on  my 
factory  price — you  wonder  whether  it  will  do 
more  good  in  your  town  or  your  community  in 
the  dealer's  pocket  or  in  yours. 

You're  living  in  the  same  town  as  the  dealer. 
You  can  make  the  money  go  just  as  far  there 
as  he  can.  Your  wife  can  do  just  as  much  with 
$25  to  $40  as  the  dealer's  wife — maybe  more. 

If  you  hire  me  for  your  buggy  maker  you're 
hiring  the  best  buggy  expert  in  the  country  to 
Iniild  your  buggy.  That  means  something. 
Prestige  always  counts.  It  means  something 
that  your  house  is  built  by  the  best_  carpenter, 
that  your  suit  is  made  by  the  best  tailor.  Same 
with  your  buggy. 

What  dealer  could  point  to  one  hundred  and 
fifty  thousand  regular  customers? 

My  customers  are  my  sales  force._  My  cus- 
tomers have  built  up  my  new  business  _  from 
year  tc  year — the  largest  vehicle  business  in  the 
world  selling  direct  to  the  people  at  factory 
prices. 

Have  all  these  people  been  working  for  my 
interests  in  sending  me  their  neighbors'  and 
friends'  business?  No— people  don't  work  for 
other  people  for  nothing.  My  customers  have 
boosted  SPLIT  HICKORY  VEHICLES  for 
their  own  interests  and  their  own  profits.  They 
have  boosted  Split  Hickory  Vehicles  because 
they  are  the  best  made,  fairest  sold,  longest  wear- 
ing vehicles  built  today. 

HICKORY  VEHICLES   ARE  TRAVELING    TODAY.

would  here  even  after   freight   was  paid."

has    been    carefully    examined    by    different    people    who    were 
favorably   impressed.      One   man   says   we   bought  it   for  $20.00 
less  than  we  could  have  bought  it  of  a  local  dealer."

giving  good  satisfaction.  I  use  it  in  hauling  wheat,  etc.,  over 
ten  miles  of  rough  roads.  I  haul  50  dozen  of  eggs  every 
month  and  haven't  broken  an  egg.  It  is  easy  riding  and 
looks  as  good  as  new." 
Mr.  A.  C.  VanouR,  Slonx   Rapids,  Iowa. — Bought  No.  12123.

scratched  in  shipment."

Rides    very    easy." 

Mr.  D.  E.  Crosby,  Brunswick,  Mich.— Bonfrht  No.   12123. 

"It  is  far  the  slickest  rig  I  ever  saw.  I  have  my  doubts 
that  it  could  be  bought  here  for  $80.00.  Compared  it  with 
a  $65.00  rig  bought  from  a  local  dealer.  If  the  dealer's 
job  isn't  a  cheap  affair  compared  to  mine,  hen,  I  am  no 
judge.     The   harness,    too,   is  all   right."

that    is    going    to    get    a    spring    wagon    this    fall.       He    saw 
mine    and    said    he    would    send    for    one."

Will  You  Give  Me  the  Chance  to 
Prove  that  This  Is  the  Best  Spring 
Wagon  in  the  World  for  the  Money? 

ONE  EXAMPLE  IS  WORTH  A  THOUSAND  ARGUMENTS 

1   DO  not  want  any  man  to  jump  at  conclusions — to  judge 

A     this  wagon  by  its  attractive  appearance  alone.  Beauty 

in  a  spring  wagon  is   only  paint  deep.     Paint 

on  most  spring  wagons  covers  the  cause  for  a 

multitude    of   future    troubles    and    expense. 

When   you   buy   a  spring  wagon,  you  cannot 

|i^     afford   to   pay   your   money   for   appearance 

iBh^.'  alone.    You  want  strength,  durability,  easy  rid- 

^^^  ing,  andeasyrunningqualities— you  want  acom- 

bination  of  materials  and  workmanship  that 

will  insure  many  years  of  satisfactory  service. 

The  average  manufacturer  or  dealer  simply  sells  you  a  wagon  at  a  certain  price.  I  sell  you 
more  than  that.     I  sell  you  wagon  service! 

Cost  is  a  future  consideration.  You  cannot  tell  what  a  wagon  costs  you  until  it  is  worn  out. 
The  longer  it  lasts  the  more  satisfactory  service  you  get  out  of  it,  the  cheaper  it  is  in  the  long  run; 
the  sooner  it  wears  out— the  more  it  has  cost  you.  I  solicit  your  order  for  this  wagon  with  the 
following  claim: 

There  is  not  a  spring  wagon  sold  by  any  dealer  or  manufacturer  in  the  United  States'at  a  cost  of 
from  $10.00  to  $30.00  above  my  price  that  is  the  equal  in  quality  of  material,  workmanship,  correct 
construction  or  finish  of  my  No.  12123. 

That  is  a  broad  claim,  but  I  want  the  chance  to  prove  it.  I  can  prove  it.  My  reputation  for 
square  dealing  gives  me  the  right  to  ask  that  chance.  Nominally,  my  guarantee  on  this  wagon  is 
for  two  years,  and  I  sell  it  on  one  month's  free  trial,  but  my  personal  guarantee  to  you  is  that  no 
matter  whether  it  is  two  months,  two  years,  or  ten  years,  if  you  ever  find  a  piece  of  material  in  it 
that  is  not  what  I  guaranteed  it  to  be,  I  will  replace  it!  My  moral  obligation  doesn't  stop  at  the 
expiration  of  two  years. 

I  have  been  making  spring  wagons  for  years,  and  I  never  have  and  never  will  put  my  name- 
plate  on  a  wagon  that  I  cannot  conscientiously  say  has  good  honest  workmanship  and  material  in 
it  throughout. 

I  have  never  before  been  able  to  offer  my  customers  a  wagon  the  equal  of  No.  12123  at  the 
price,  I  positively  know  it  to  be  the  best  wagon  in  the  world  for  the  money.  My  competitors 
have  by  their  own  wagons  proven  it  to  be  so.  I  bought  samples  of  about  all  the  wagons  I  could 
find  advertised.  I  ripped  them  apart,  I  dug  under  the  paint.  I  found  much  material  that  would 
not  in  my  opinion  even  make  good  firewood.  I  found  workmanship  bordering  on  criminal  care- 
lessness.    Yet,    their  advertised   claims   were   that  their  wagons  were  perfect  in  every  detail. 

I  know  why  spring  wagons  wear  out.  I  know  what  parts  wear  out  first.  I  know  what  will 
and  what  won't   stand  years  of  hard  service  in  the  way  of  different  materials. 

I  am  not  in  business  for  a  day.  I  want  my  sons  to  sell  your  sons  spring  wagons  if  they 
succeed  to  my  business,  and  I  am  building  wagons  today  that  will  make  it  easier  for  them  to  do 
so.  I  am  today  reaping  the  benefit  of  the  fact  that  my  old  spring  wagon  customers  have  long  mem- 
ories. That  is  why  I  am  today  selling  more  spring  wagons  than  all  of  my  competitors  selling  by 
mail  put  together. 

TaL-A  Mv  AflvirP  if  you  are  in  the  market 
I  aiVC  my  XTUY1\,v»  for  a  spring  wagon,  or- 
der my  Leader  No.  12123.  You  take  no  chance.  If 
it  isn't  smtisfactory  to  you  whether  you  find  it  to  be 
as  represented  or  not ;  if  you  do  not  find  it  by  com- 
parison to  be  better  than  any  spring  wagon  that  you 
can  find  for  from  $15.00  to  $20.00  above  my  price; 
if  you— for  any  reason — are  not  satisfied  with  the 
wagon,  send  it  back  at  my    expense   and  I  will  guarantee  to  immediately  refund  your  money  in  full.

in  appearance,  but  twice  as  strong  as  ordinary 
seats.

comfortable  and 
very  durable —

wear  almost,  if 
not  fully,  as

confuse  this 
upholstering  with  the  cheap,  thin  painted  drill 
or  rubber  furnished  by  others  on  their  so- 
called  good  spring  wagons.  Seat  sides  are  padded 
and  upholstered.  Genuine  leather  upholstering 
on  both  seats,  $3.75.  Dark  green  heavy  cloth 
upholstering,  $2.00.     Corduroy,  $2.50.

Re  sure  to  read  page  12. 

SPRINGS— Hayes  spring  in  front,  full  plat- 
form in  rear.  Rear  springs  4  plate  l->^  inches 
wide  and  made  of  best  grade  oil  tempered  re- 
fined steel.  Graded  and  graduated  to  ride  easy 
with  light  or  heavy  load.  Hayes  spring  in  front 
has  five  leaves  in  lower  section,  three  leaves  in 
each  upper  section.  Hayes  spring  is  attached 
to  heavy  wide  hardwood  bolster  with  heavy  head 
bolts.  The  bolster  is  securely  attached  to  the 
body,  making  a  very  rigid  construction.  The 
Hayes  spring  gear  construction  regularly  fur- 
nished is  especially  recommended,  as  it  is  not 
only  strong  and  easy  riding,  but  it  enables 
coupling  the  gear  up  shorter,  which  permits  of 
turning  shorter,  and  by  shortening  the  gear 
makes   the  wagon  pull  easier. 

GEARS — Heavy  straight  grained  second 
growth  split  hickory  reaches,  I's  inches  thick. 
Ironed  full  length  and  securely  clipped  to  rear

In   general,   the   gear   on   this   wagon    is 


heavier,  stronger,  and  better  constructed,  and 
of  better  material  than  on  other  wagons  made 
at  any  price. 

SHAFTS — Extra  heavy  straight  grained  split 
hickory  double  bend  wagon  shafts.  Heavily 
ironed.  Braces  extending  from  shaft  eye  beyond 
crossbar  and  on  crossbar.  Extra  heavy  corner

ent iron  trace  holder  on  ends.  Heavy  harness 
leather  hold  back  loops,  trace  carriers,  and  evener 
straps  on  single-tree.  Pole  in  place  of  shafts, 
$2.25.     Pole   in  addition  to  shafts,  $4.75. 

PAINTING— Body  and  seats,  black,  with  two 
rich  dark  Brewster  green  center  panels,  hand- 
somely ornamented  and  striped.  Gear,  rich 
shade  of  red,  neatly  striped.  This  color  scheme 
is  recommended  as  it  makes  a  very  attractive, 
yet  not  loud  or  gaudy,  finish.  Green  gear  if  pre- 
ferred. Yellow  or  oak  gear,  $1.00  extra.  Special 
attention  is  called  to  the  fact  that  these  wagons 
are  painted  with  the  same  number  of  coats  of 
paint,  and  with  the  same  care  that  our  surreys 
are  painted,  making  them  suitable  for  pleasure 
or  business  purposes.  Our  oil  and  lead  hand 
brush  work  process  is  used.  No  part  of  the 
wagon  is  dipped.  This  makes  a  vast  difference, 
not  only  in  the  appearance  cf  the  wagon,  but 
in  the  durability  of  the  painting.

Split  Hickory  Carts 


SOLD  FOR  CASH  WITH  ORDER  ONLY 

No  well  equipped  farm  is  complete  without  a  good,  strong  cart  of  this  kind.  WE  MAKE  A 
BETTER  CART  THAN  OTHER  MANUFACTURERS  BECAUSE  WE  DO  NOT  USE  "CULL 
MATERIAL,"  AS  THE  OTHERS  DO.  We  use  exclusively  good,  straight  gram  hickory  that  we 
can  safely  guarantee. 

A  cart,  as  a  rule,  is  subjected  to  hard  service  and  it  should  be  made  doubly  strong.  As  it  is 
a  vehicle  that  should  last  many  years,  it  pays  to  get  a  good  one,  and  that  is  the  kind  that  we  have 
to  ofifer  you  in  these  styles. 

We  are  not  prepared  to  make  any  changes  whatever.  We  manufacture  these  carts  in  large  quan- 
tities during  the  dull  season  and  have  prepared  them  for  almost  immediate  shipment  when  your  order 
is  received,  consequently  will  make  no  changes  whatever  from  the  way  they  are  described  below.

If  not,  no  matter  where  you  live  we  can  give  you  the  names  of  customers  who  have  pur- 
chased harness  or  vehicles  from  us  living  near  you.  We  want  yon  t(i  get  other  evidence  besides 
our  catalogue  statements  concerning  the  superiority  of  our  goods.  Tiic  man  best  qualified  to  ex- 
press his  opinion  about  them  is  the  one  who  has  paid  his  good  hard  earned  money  for  them  and 
tested  them  out  under  all  conditions.  His  experience  is  worth  something  to  you.  He  wouldn't 
recommend  our  goods  unless  he  could  conscientiously  do  so.  We  receive  thousands  of  voluntary 
testimonials  every  year  concerning  the  quality  of  our  harness.  Our  customers  are  always  well 
pleased.  You  should  profit  by  the  experiences  of  other.-  H  you  wrote  your  name  on  the  bottom 
of  a  testimonial  letter  to  us,  you  would  do  so  only  because  you  felt  sure  that  you  had  been  rightly 
treated  and  that  our  promises  to  you  were  fulfilled.  H  we  have  succeeded  in  pleasing,  without 
exception,  every  customer  who  has  bought  harness  from  us,  it  is  only  reasonable  to  suppose 
that  your  case  will  be  no  exception.  We  want  your  order  because  we  know  we  can  give  you 
more  value  than  you  can  get  elsewhere.

"Ohio  Brand"  Oak  Tanned  Harness 

The  Only  Brand  Sold  Under  a  Written  Guarante 


A  FEW  OF  OUR  SKILLED  HARNESS  MAKERS 

Why  We  Choose  to  Sell  Our  Harness  at  Lower  Prices  Than 

We  Could  Get  For  Them 

That  our  harness  prices  are  far  lower  than  have  ever  before  been  quoted  by  any  manufacturer, 
jobber  or  dealer  is  an  admitted  fact.  When  compared  side  by  side  v/ith  other  harness,  and  our 
price  made  known,  we  practically  have  no  competitors.  Manufacturers  and  dealers  have  told  us 
that  we  were  foolish  not  to  get  more  profit  out  of  our  goods — that  they  were  worth  it — but  our 
business  is  founded  on  the  SCIENCE  OF  SERVICE  and  we  prefer  to  conduct  our  business  along 
lines  that  mean  the  greatest  benefit  to  the  greatest  number  of  people.  It  is  a  well-known  fact  that 
in  these  progressive  times  no  business  concern  can  prosper  unless  they  render  service  to  their  cus- 
tomers that  is  entirely  satisfactory.  We  are  in  business  to  make  money.  We  claim  no  philan- 
thropic motives  whatever  in  quoting  the  low  prices  that  we  do.  There  is  a  good,  common  sense 
reason  for  it  that  will  appeal  to  the  man  of  common   sense   judgment. 


The  Reason  Why 


The  greater  the  saving  we  effect  for  our  customers,  the  more  money  they  make  in  buying  from 
us  instead  of  elsewhere,  and  the  better  pleased  they  are  with  their  purchases,  the  more  they  will 
advertise  us;  the  more  voluntary  and  favorable  advertising  we  get  the  more  harness  we  sell;  the 
more  harness  we  sell,  the  more  we  make;  the  more  harness  we  make,  the  cheaper  we  can  buy  our 
raw  materials.  It  is  an  endless  chain— the  better  we  serve  our  customers  the  more  business  we  do. 
Consequently,  our  net  profits  at  the  end  of  the  year  are  greater.  Our  interests  are  mutual.  We  sell 
more  harness  than  any  other  concern  in  the  business.  Price  makes  the  volume  for  us.  The  volume 
makes  the  low  price  possible.  We  can  sell  you  harness  cheaper  than  a  dealer  can  buy  it  from  the 
manufacturers,  because  he  cannot  buy  enough  to  enable  the  manufacturer  getting  the  price  down. 
We  repeat,  that  the  reason  for  our  low  price  is  the  SCIENCE  OF  SERVICE.  Result— The 
more  we  save  our  customers,  and  the  better  we  serve  them,  the  more  we  benefit  ourselves.

This  illustrates  our 
method  of  cutting 
hides.  We  reject  the 
"belly  stock"  and  use 
only  the  "first  cuts." 


LEATHER  WE  USE 

We  use  exclusively  Oak  Tanned  "Packers"  steer  hide,  taken  from  the  cattle  that  have  been 
shipped  to  the  packing  houses  at  Chicago,  for  slaughter.  Such  cattle  have  attained  full  growth 
and  their  hides  are  tirm  and  tough.  We  use  no  chemically  tanned  leather.  "Hemlock"  tanned  or 
"chemically"  tanned  hides  produce  cheap  leather.  Such  leather  can  hardly  be  told  in  appearance 
from  the  oak  tanned,  but  it  is  far  inferior  in  wearing  qualities.  It  cracks,  peels  and  breaks  very 
easily,  as   the   fibres  in   it  have   been   rotted  in   hasty   "chemically   tanning." 

OUR  WORKMEN 

Boys  and  women,  as  employed  by  some  harness  manufacturers,  produce  cheap  harness,  but  not 
good  harness.  We  employ  none  but  skilled  mechanics,  and  we  lind  it  economical  to  do  so.  Our 
factory  system  is  conducive  to  the  highest  grade  of  workmanship.  Every  man  is  a  specialist  in 
his  particular  line.  He  has  a  model  to  go  by,  and  his  finished  product  must  positively  come  up 
to  the  inspector's  model.  Our  workmen  are  surrounded  with  every  possible  working  facility  for 
the  production  of  the  highest  grade  of  harness. 

They  are  provided  with  massive  Campbell-Bosworth  Lock-Stitching  Machines,  the  work  of 
which  has  long  since  proven  far  superior  to  hand  stitching,  for  no  man,  no  matter  how  skillful, 
can  sew,  for  instance,  a  set  of  traces,  as  firmly  or  as  evenly.  In  sewing  with  this  machine  we  use 
nothing  but  Barbour's  finest  grade  of  linen  thread,  except  where  we  use  silk  thread.  You  will 
find   no  cotton   thread   in   our   harness   to   rot  and  rip. 

OUR  HARNESS  IS  SCIENTIFICALLY  PROPORTIONED 

The  highly  pleasing  high-grade  appearance  of  our  harness  is  materially  due  to  the  fact  that 
it  is  properly  proportioned  and  well  balanced.  It  is  not  clumsy  in  certain  parts  and  small  in  oth- 
ers, but  each  pa^t  bears  a  relative  proportion  to  the  other  parts,  as  in  proportion  to  the  strain 
it  must  sustain.     Some  harness  producers  make  up   in    quantity   what  the  parts   lack  in   quality. 

OUR  MOUNTINGS  AND  FINISH 

No  matter  what  the  workmanship  on  a  harness 
may  be,  or  what  grade  of  material  is  used,  it  can- 
not be  pleasing  to  the  eye  unless  it  has  that  finished 
appearance  which  is  indicative  in  itself  of  high  grade 
harness.  In  dressing  our  harness  and  polishing  it, 
we  do  not  dip  it  in  vats  and  then  let  it  dry,  but 
each  strap  is  blacked  with  a  brush  and  rubbed  to  a 
high  polish,  working  the  blacking  into  the  grain 
in  such  a  way  that  it  will  not  rub  off. 

The  mountings  are  not  only  neat  in  appearance, 
but  are  thoroughly  durable.  We  use  nickel  on  com- 
position or  solid  nickel  mountings  and  not  the  cheap 
"nickel  washed"  mountings  which  will  rub  and 
scrape   off. 

We  use  only  the  selected  parts  of  the  hide  as 
indicated  in  illustration  at  top  of  this  page.  The 
discarded  jiarts  are  called  "belly  stock."  It  doesn't 
make  good  harness  because  it  is  usually  thin  and 
full  of  "cuts  and  grubs,"  and  other  imperfections. 
As  a  rule  it  is  spongy  and  flanky,  and  will  pull  out 
of  shape  easily.     We  could  not  aflford  to  use  it  in 

our  high  grade  harness.  The  demand,  however,  for  belly  stock  exceeds  the  supply,  and  we 
are  always  able  to  sell  it  to  other  harness  concerns  who  make  the  so-called  "cheap"  harness  sold 
by  catalogue   houses.     Most  manufacturers  use  the    entire    hide,    and    don't    sell   the    belly   stock,

Read  Our  Guarantee  and  "Money  Back"  Agreement  With  You 


Our  first  agreement  is  to  absolutely  guarantee 
to  save  you  money.  We  positively  agree  to  send 
you  harness  that  will  thoroughly  please  and  sat- 
isfy you.  If  we  fail  to  do  so,  which  is  most  un- 
likely, then  we  take  the  harness  back  at  our  ex- 
pense for  freight  both  ways  and  refund  every 
cent  of  your  money  immediately.  No  matter 
whether  j-ou  find  the  harness  up  to  our  claims 
or  not,  if  it  don't  suit  you,  your  privilege  is  to 
return  it.  The  only  condition  we  impose  is  that 
you  do  not  use  it  and  soil  it.  Make  any  com- 
parison you  care  to,  any  reasonable  test  you 
want  to,  then  if  you  decide  to  keep  it  our  "Guar- 
antee Tag"  is  your  future  protection  and  assur- 
ance of  durability.  Isn't  our  agreement  a  fair 
one? 


Every    Set   Guaranteed   This   Way. 


Important !    What  Size   Is   Your   Horse  ? 

If  your  horse  weighs  over  1250  pounds,  because  it  takes  longer  strap  work  throughout,  the 
harness  will  have  to  be  made  larger  and  it  will  cost  you  $1.00  extra  on  single  sets,  and  $2.00  ex- 
tra on  double  sets.  All  our  harness  is  made  adjustable  to  fit  horses  weighing  from  800  pounds  to 
1250   pounds. 

Our  Only  Terms  and   Prices 

The  prices  quoted  in  our  catalogue  are  positively  our  very  lowest.  We  have  but  one  price 
to  everybody,  no  matter  how  many  sets  are  wanted.  Our  only  terms  are  Cash-with-Order,  un- 
less you  are  ordering  a  vehicle  at  the  same  time,  which  you  are  ordering  on  our  Cash-on-De- 
posit  plan,  in  which  case  you  can  also  deposit  the  orice  of  the  harness.  We  positively  will  not 
ship   harness    Collect   on    Delivery,   as   our  profit  is  too   small   to  pay  collection   charges. 

Freight  on   Harness 

The  freight  is  insignificant  when  you  consider  the  saving  that  we  effect  for  you.  To  points 
East  of  the  INIississippi  and  North  of  the  Ohio  River,  the  freightage  is  between  25  and  50  cents. 
To  Southern  States,  it  is  from  75  cents  to  $1.25;  to  the  far  West,  from  $1.50  to  $2.50.  The 
freight  on  three  sets  of  single  harness  or  two  sets  of  double  harness  is  no  more  than  on  one 
set,  as  the  railway  companies  make  a  minimum  charge  for  100  pounds.  While  one  set  would  not 
weigh  100  pounds,  you  would  be  charged  for  100  pounds  just  the  same.  If,  however,  a  vehicle  is 
ordered  at  the  same  time,  the  harness  is  packed  in  the  vehicle  shipment  and  you  only  pay  freight 
on  the  actual  weight  of  the  harness.  If  you  order  a  set  of  harness  without  a  vehicle,  try  to  in- 
terest some  friends  to  order  with  you  to  save  freight,  as  the  freight  on  two  or  three  sets  will  be 
no    more    than    on    one    set. 

Changes  and  Extras 

We  prefer  to  furnish  our  harness  just  as  we  illustrate  and  describe  it,  with  such  changes  as 
are  provided  for  in  the  descriptions.  We  make  it  up  as  our  experience  has  taught  us  is  the  cor- 
rect way.  We  are  not,  however,  arbitrary  as  to  making  changes  and  will  do  so,  making  no 
charge  except  where  the  change  is  one  that  affects  the  cost  of  making  the  harness.  On  any 
harness  you  have  the  option,  without  extra  charge,  of  open  or  blind  bridle,  sliding  or  Grifiith 
style  belly  band,  overcheck  or  side  rein.  For  buckled  crupper  add  25  cents  extra  on  single  har- 
ness, 50  cents  on  double  harness.  Handholds  in  lines^  75  cents.  Padded  lines,  $1.00  extra.  If 
there  are  any  other  changes  you  want  made,  write  us  plainly  just  how  you  want  the  harness 
changed,  and  we  will  tell  you  what  it  will   cost  you. 


Hitch   Reins   and   Tie   Straps 

Our  prices  do  not  include  hitch  reins.  They  were  not  figured  in 
the  cost  of  our  harness.  There  is  a  great  difference  of  opinion  as  to 
what  is  the  most  suitable  size  and  kind,  and  as  it  is  a  matter  of  opin- 
ion, and  should  depend  on  the  horse  to  be  hitched,  we  prefer  to  sell 
you,  at  actual  cost  to  us,  exactly  the  strap  or  rein  you  think  you  need, 
as   follows:

WE  are  certain  that  the  harness  you  really  need   is   in    the    above  list.      Look   them   over. 
We   recommend   that   you   order   one   of  these    sets,    not    because    it    would    afford   us    a 
larger  profit  than  if  you  selected  some  other  style — for  it  certainly  wouldn't — but  because 
you  will  be  getting  nearer  one  hundred  cents  in  actual  harness  value  for  every  dollar  you  pay 
us  than  any  manufacturer,  dealer,  jobber  or  small  harness  maker  could  possibly  offer  you. 


RETAIL  DEALERS  AND   SMALL  HARNESS  MAKERS

maker  examine  it — it  will  speak  for  itself,  and  if  you  cannot 
say  that  it  is  the  best  harness  you  ever  saw  for  the  money — 
send  it  back.  There  won't  be  any  questioning  or  quibbling. 
We    will    refund   your   money   instantly. 

The  very  best  proof  that  we  can  offer  you,  aside  from 
thousands  of  testimonials  that  we  have  received  (like  those  we 
print  on  page  130)  from  customers  who  are  using  "I'ig  Sixes," 
IS  that  scores  of  dealers  and  jobbers  throughout  tlie  United 
States   are   offering   us   orders   for   quantity   lots   at   the   same 


prices  we  sell  them  to  you  direct  for  one  set.  When  retail 
dealers,  who  are  our  keenest  competitors  foi  your  trade, 
admit  that  they  cannot  buy  harness  at  lower  prices  than  you 
can;  and  when  you  know  that  the  dealer  must  make  a  profit 
on  his  sales,  which  is  from  $5.00  to  $20.00,  according  to  the 
harness,  isn't  it  the  strongest  argument  that  you  should  buy 
from   us   direct   and  save  the   dealer's   profit? 

Our  capacity — large  as  it  is — is  not  large  enough  to  per- 
mit of  our  accepting  orders  that  are  offered  us  for  quantity 
lots  by  dealers  and  jobbers  in  addition  to  our  regular  busi- 
ness with  consumers  direct.  We  are  not  selling  to  dealers. 
OUR  BIG  SIXES  CANNOT  BE  PITRCH.ASED  THROUGH 
DE.M.ERS.  DON'T  ALLOW  ANY  DEALER  TO  MIS- 
LEAD YOU  AND  OFFER  YOU  A  CHEAP  SUBSTITUTE. 


WHY  WE  CAN  AFFORD  TO  QUOTE  THESE  LOW  PRICES 


In  giving  especial  prominence  to  these  six  sots  of  harness, 
it  is  not  our  intention  of  "hurrahing"  anybody  into  iiuying 
them.  If  you  were  here  to  make  your  selection,  the  mere 
statement  of  what  the  price  is,  and  the  laying  before  you  of 
the  harness  for  your  own  examination  would  be  all  the  sell- 
ing  argument    required. 

It  is  only  reasonable  for  anyone  who  is  interested  to  ask 
that  we  state  a  good  reason  why  we  can  afford  to  quote  lower 
prices  than  other  manufacturers  on  this  sort  of  harness. 
We  do  not  claim  to  be  the  only  concern  in  the  country 
making  good  harness.  We  freely  admit  that  other  harness 
manufacturers,  and  even  retail  dealers  can  quote  you  prices 
that  will  be  about  the  same  as  our  price,  but  the  remarkable 
thing  about  this  harness  is  that  it  is  so  far  superior  to  other 
manufacturers'  harness  at  the  same  price,  when  the  question 
of    quality,     workmanship    and    style    is    considered.       Other 


manufacturers  can  offer  you  harness  of  about  the  same 
price,   but  you  would   find  a   vast  difference  in  the  quality. 

There  are  three  things  that  will  govern  any  manufac- 
turer's  ability    to    undersell   his   competitors. 

1st.     A   large   demand. 

2nd.      Superior   manufacturing  facilities. 

3rd.  Capital  that  will  enable  his  buying  for  spot  cash, 
and  in  such  quantities  that  his  first  cost  will  be  lower  than 
his  competitors. 

We  have  already  created  the  demand,  which  is  increasing 
to  a  point  that  will  this  year  necessitate  our  enlarging  our 
plant. 

We  have  the  skilled  labor  which  the  size  of  our  business 
enables   our   employing  the   year   around. 

We  have  the  capital  to  buy  for  cash — because  we  do  no 
credit  business  and  sell  for  spot  cash. 


WE  BUY  MORE  HARNESS  RAW  MATERIAL  THAN  ANY  OTHER  HARNESS  MANUFACTURER 

IN  AMERICA 


Were  it  not  for  the  fact  that  we  sell  two  sets  of  harness 
where  the  average  manufacturer  only  sells  one,  our  price 
on  these  "Big  Six"  Leaders  would  be  utterly  impossible. 


Our  profit  is  made  by  doing  a  big  volume  of  business,  and 
therefore  we  can  afford  to  quote  extremely  close  prices  and 
take   a   very  small   profit    on   each   set. 


WHEN  WE  FIRST  OFFERED  THESE  "BIG  SIX"  LEADERS  THREE  YEARS  AGO, 
OUR  COMPETITORS  PREDICTED  OUR  FAILURE 


They  said  it  would  be  impossible  for  us  to  continue  to  sell 
these  harness  at  the  price  that  we  were  quoting,  but  they 
flid  not  count  on  the  fact  that  every  set  of  harness  we  sold 
would  be  the  ilircct  means  of  selling  another  set  for  us. 
We  figured  it  that  way  in  arriving  at  our  decision  to  quote 
these    prices,    and   our   business   judgment   proved   good.      C)ur 


harness  business  has  now  grown  to  that  point  where  we  can 
sell  a  set  of  harness  direct  to  a  consumer  at  a  |;rice  that  is 
in  most  cases  less  than  what  it  wouhl  cost  a  small  harness- 
maker  to  produce  it — a  price  lower  than  the  first  cost  to  a 
dealer.

ordered  we  furnish  genuine  "nickel  on  composition,"  not

Harness  From  Bit  To  Crupper!

We  want  to  show  you  how  you  can  prove  to  your  own  satisfac- 
tion that  this  is  the  greatest  harness  value  ever 
sold  by  anyone. 


two 


Order  this  harness  on  ai)i>roval.  tlun  ask  your  retail  harness  dealer  to  let  you  compare  this 
harness  sidc-by-side.  and  strap-lOr-strap  with  any  single  lOUU-d  iiariiess  in  his  shop  which  he  sells 
for  as   much  as   $10.00  above   our   price. 

First,  compare  bridles:  (see  illustration,  page  135)  is  your  dealer's  bridle  hand  sewed?  Has  it 
a  solid  layer  on  crown  piece?  Are  all  laps  hand  stitched?  Is  his  overdraw  check  and  end 
piece   strong,   heavy,    firm   stock?     Does  it    compare   in   appearance    with   ours? 

Now,  the  breast  collar:  Is  his  made  strong  like  ours,  with  long  scalloped  1-inch  layers  all 
around?  '  Has  it  the  same  layer  on  breeching  also?  Does  your  dealer's  harness  have  large  de- 
greased    box    loops,    with    patent    leather    ends    for   traces? 

Look  at  our  traces:  (see  illustration  on  page  163.)  Are  his  traces  genuine  hand  raised  with 
round    leather    filler,    doubled    and    lock-stitched? 

Is    your    dealer's    harness    box    loop    throughout?     Look  at  our  box  loop   tugs! 

Get  the  dealer  to  just  try  to  show  you  that  his  saddle  is  the  equal  of  ours.  Now  place  the 
sets  of  lines  side-by-side:  Are  his  lines  V&  by  V/s  inches  with  spring  billet  ends?  How  do 
they  compare?  Feel  the  thickness  of  ours.  Are  his  iines  "top  cut,"  firm,  tough  oak  stock  like 
ours,  or  cheap,  flimsy  "belly  stock?"  Which  lines  would  you  feel  safest  behind  with  a  vicious 
horse?     Don't  take  any  chances  on  lines— get  the  best. 

Examine  the  breeching  of  his  harness  and  compare  it  with  ours.  Notice  the  width  of  them  and 
the  stock  of  the  leather.  The  usual  breeching  on  harness  at  this  price  is  skimpy  IJ/^-inch  stock, 
with  short  one-inch  straight  layers.  If  your  dealer  will  let  you  cut  open  the  breeching  fold,  it  is 
ten  chances  to  one  that  you  will  find  it  stuffed  with  paper  in  the  folds  to  fill  them  up  and  give 
them   a   heavy   appearance.     You   will   not   find   any  such   deception  practiced   in  our  harness. 

Compare  the  hold  back  straps  and  see  if  his  are  up  to  ours  in  size  and  quality.  Buggies  have 
been   wrecked  because   of  poor   hold  back   straps. 

There  is  another  thing  that  we  do  not  want  you  to  overlook.  Compare  the  mountings  and 
notice  there  is  not  a  single  hook,  terret,  bit  or  buckle,  or  any  other  part  made  of  cheap  X.  C.  or 
iron  japanned.  You  will  find  them  all  to  be  Davis  rubber,  or  nickel  on  composition  or  brass. 
This  makes  a  big  difference  in  the  cost  of  mounting  the   harness. 

FINALLY,  if  both  sets  of  harness  are  of  the  same  width,  same  proportion  of  straps,  and  same 
length,  put  the  two  sets  on  the  scales  and  see  which  Vvcighs  the  most.  The  weight  of  the  strap 
work  in  a  set  of  harness  determines  the  quality  of  the  leather.  You  will  find  ours  are  from  one 
to    two   pounds   heavier    than    cheap    harness,    which   denotes    thickness  and   firmness  of  stock.

No.  12151    "Silver  King"  General  Purpose  Harness 

One  of  the  "Big  Six"  Family 


PRICE 
Cash  with  Order  $16.50 

Cash  on  Deposit  $17.00 

We  originated  this  handsome  style  two  years  ago,  and  our  competitors,  quick  to  recognize 
its  beauty,  style  and  practicability,  have  copied  it  and  are  offering  imitations  of  it.  at  prices  rang- 
ing from  $18.00  to  $-25.00.  No  one  has  attempted  to  duplicate  it  at  our  price.  They  cant  afford 
to.  This  design,  suitable  for  any  style  vehicle,  is  a  big  improve- 
ment over  ordinary  shaped  harness.  The  non-tarnishing  metal 
loops  make  stronger  and  safer  "keepers"  for  strap  ends  than 
leather  or  box  loops,  and  they  are  neater  and  more  attractive  in 
appearance.  The  rounded  form  of  neck  and  hip  straps,  not  only 
look  better,  but  as  they  will  slide  with  the  motions  of  the  horse, 
they  insure  a  perfect  balance  of  breast  collar  and  breeching  at  all 
times.     This  prevents  chafing  of  the  horse  also. 

This  harness  is  identically  the  same  in  quality  and  strap  pro- 
portions as  our  "Big  Six"  Leader,  described  on  pages  135  to  137. 
We  improved  the  form  of  it,  Init  couldn't  improve  the  quality.  We 
willingly  ship  this  harness  on  approval  and  fully  guarantee  it  as 
to  wearing  qualities.  We  can  honestly  recommend  it  to  be  a  bet- 
ter harness  value  than  you  can  possibly  buy  elsewhere  at  our  price.

Surrey  Harness  No.  12159 


No  matliT  liow  little  or  hnw  nim-h  \.<\\  may  know  aixmt  hamt-ss.  if  you  are  soing  to  buy  a 
Single    Surrey    Harness.    DOX'T    iU-V    rXTII.    V<  T    11 WK    SKFN    THIS   Si.T. 

Vou  will  he  niiyhty  glad  you  didn't  buy  elsewhere  if  you  let  us  >end  this  harness  to  you  for 
your  approval.  Just  compare  it  with  what  your  dealer  wants  to  charge  you  So. 00  to  $10.00  more 
money  for— compare  it  side-by-side  and  strap-by-strap.  If  you  do.  you'll  pocket  the  middleman's 
profit  yourself,  and  thereby  patronize  the  one  greatest  "home  industry"  that  interests  you  most 
— j'our   own   pocket   book. 

Kememl)er  if  the  harness  don't  suit  you,  you  lose  nothing — all  we  ask  is  an  honest  compari- 
son. If  you  keep  it  (and  we  know  you  will)  test  out  under  any  use  you  care  to  that  YOU  con- 
sider fair,  and  if  it  breaks  in  any  part,  we  will  replace   it    free. 

Read  the  descriptions  carefully:  examine  the  illustrations  closely.  Note  the  style;  the  illustra- 
tion is  exact.  Consider  how  the  bridle  is  made,  with  patent  leather  grained  blinds;  hand  sewed 
winker  stays,  and  leather,  silk-stitched,  brow  bands;  handsome  box  loop  cheeks.  The  saddle  is 
a  beauty;  the  bearers  run  full  length  of  the  saddle,  affording  an  even  balance.  The  saddle  is 
made  in  large  size  with  genuine  leather,  tufted  bottom,  patent  leather  skirts.  The  collar  is  whole 
stock  and  not  patched,  and  is  a  genuine  kip,  hand  stuffed  collar  of  the  highest  grade.  The  hames 
are  not  the  cheap  malleable  kind,  and  will  not  break.  The  draught  eyes  and  terrets  are  not  the 
cheap  electro-plated  and  washed  kind,  but  are  made  solid  nickel-on-composition.  Note  the  hand- 
some raised,  doubled  and  stitched  traces  which  are  made  of  oak  stock  with  an  extra  layer  at  the 
heel  or  dart  holes  to  strengthen  them. 


BRIDLE — ^inch.  box  loop,  with  narness  leather  noseband 
and  round  side  rein.  Blinds  are  patent  leather,  three  row 
stitched,  with  round  hand-stitched  winker  stays.  Brow 
band  is  all  leather  throughout,  stitched  with  fine  silk 
thread:  box  loops  on  bridles  are  made  from  degreased 
leather,  insuring  stability  and  preventing  flabbincss  when 
wet.  Flat  overchcck  instead  of  round  side  rein,  if  pre- 
ferred,  no  extra   charge. 

LINES — 7i-inch  by  I'^-inch  flat,  "first  cut"  stock,  full 
length,    all   black. 

HAMES  AND  Tl'GS — Hames  nre  heavy  wrought  iron  and 
will  not  break  as  malleable  hames  will.  The  draught  eyes 
and  lerrcts  are  nickel  flated  or  brass  and  the  plating  is 
not  cheap  electro  or  "'wash"  plating.  Hames  are  full  S'/i- 
pound   with   box   loop  hame  tugs   attached. 

COLL.\R — Genuine  extra  high  grade  kip  leather,  handsomely 
finished,  very  smooth  stock  and  hand  stuffed,  collar  is  all 
black.  Patent  lever  latch  fastener  is  furnished  on  collar. 
No  buckles  and  straps  en  collar  to  worry  you  in  cold  and 
wet    weather. 

TR.\CES — Extra  heavy  stock,  full  ly^inch  doubled  and 
stitched,  with  reinforcing  at  dart  holes  to  strengthen. 
Special  attention  is  called  to  the  fact  that  the.sc  traces  are 
raised,  presenting  a  much  more  handsome  appearance  than 
the   ordinary   flat  traces. 

SADDLE — 3^^-inch  size,  straight  pattern  with  best  quality 
enamel    leather    tufted   bottom,    patent    leather   skirts,    patent 


leather  panel  jockey,  doubled  and  stitched  heavy  running 
bearer  or  backhands.  Note  that  the  saddle  furnished  is  a 
side  trimmed  saddle,  that  is,  the  terrets  arc  set  forward 
so  that  the  backhands  run  freely  all  around  the  saddle. 
This  insures  comfort  for  the  horse,  as  with  this  style  run- 
ning backhands  the  saddle  cannot  be   pulled   out  of   place. 

SHAFT  TUGS — linch,  doubled  and  stitched,   with  box  loops. 

BF.LLYBANDS— Rellybands  are  folded  and  stitched,  full 
Pi    inches   wide,    with    7^-inch  buckle  and    leather   loops. 

BREECHING — Folded  and  stitched,  cut  extra  wide  with 
layer,  two  rows  of  stitching,  reinforced  at  each  end  to 
strengthen  breeching  ring.  Breeching  dees  are  firmly 
sewed  in  (thereby  overcoming  what  is  usually  a  weak 
point).  The  turnback  is  solid,  and  not  pieced.  It  is 
furnished  with  a  liner  on  the  bottom  side  for  hip  straps 
fii-inch  split  hip  strap,  turnback  '/^-inch  size,  holdbacks  full 
7|i-inch.  breeching  tugs  are  box  loop  made  of  degreased 
stock. 

TRIMMINGS— Regularly  furnished  are  nickel.  Will  fur- 
nish handsome  pattern  br.iss  or  imitation  rubber,  if  pre- 
ferred,   without   extra   charge. 

SPECIAL  NOTE — .\t  an  additional  charge  of  $2.50  we  will 
supply  an  extra  breast  collar  so  that  the  harness  can  be 
used  cither  as  breast  collar  or  collar  and  hames  set.  The 
breast  collar  will  be  arranged  so  that  regular  traces  can 
be    buckled    right   onto   it.

Two  Minutes  Spent  on  This  Diagram  Will  Show  You 
Exactly  How  I  Can  Save  You  $25  to  $40 


Just  add  up  for  your  own  satisfaction 
these  expenses  of  the  dealer  and  the  jobber. 

19  different  expenses  have  to  be  "tacked 
on"  every  buggy  you  buy  in  the  old  way. 

Look  at  my  factory  expenses. 

Is  there  any  mystery  about  my  being  able 
to  save  my  customers  $35  to  $40  on  every 
buggy  they  buy? 

Isn't  it  plain  that  for  every  dollar  of  profit 
the  dealer  or  jobber  or  the  mail  order  house 
makes  you  get  that  much  less  quality  in 
your  buggy?  When  I  say  Mail  Order  House 
I  refer  to  the  many-department  Mail  Order 
House  that  is  the  same  as  a  great  central 
dealer  who  in  turn  buys  of  the  factory,  pays 
the  factory  a  profit  and  makes  a  profit  him- 
self. 

It  is  you  who  pay  the  rent  and  fuel  and 
lighting  and  clerk  hire.  You  pay  by  get- 
ting a  poorer  buggy. 

Split  Hickory  Quality  never  has  to  be 
cheapened  to  pay  several  profits  out  of  your 
money.  All  your  money  goes  into  the  bug- 
gy, it  pays  for  quality  in  materials,  qual- 
ity in  labor.  That's  what  you  want — one 
hundred  per  cent  buggy. 

But  you  want  to  be  sure  of  what  you're 
getting  before   you  hand    your    money    to 


Phelps  or  anyone  else — no  matter  what  the 
price. 

You  want  to  be  sure  of  a  buggy  that  will 
stand  up  for  longest  service.  You  want  a 
buggy  to  take  you  over  any  road  in  any  kind 
of  weather.  You  want  a  buggy  without  a 
single  weak  spot. 

I  have  been  making  Split  Hickory  Ve- 
hicles over  eleven  years  and  I  have  never 
yet  heard  of  a  single  Split  Hickory  Buggy 
that  has  worn  out. 

You  never  have  heard  and  you  never  will 
hear  of  any  such  trouble  as  broken  wheels 
from  people  driving  the  famous  Split  Hick- 
ory Buggies — guaranteed  two  years  but 
lasting  the  longest  lifetime  of  any  buggy 
in  the  world  today. 

There  is  only  one  way  to  be  sure  in  buy- 
ing any  kind  of  buggy.  That  is  to  try  out 
the  buggv  in  your  own  way — over  your  own 
roads.     To  use  it  as  you  intend  to  use  it. 

For  your  protection  and  for  my  protec- 
tion—to make  sure  every  customer  T  sell  is 
a  satisfied  customer— I  sell  my  buggies  on 
the  most  liberal,  sure  test  any  manufacturer 
has  ever  ofifered— on  30  Days'  Free  Road 
Test.

Full  Detailed  Description  of  "Big  Six''  Leader  Double  Buggy 

or  Surrey  Harness  No.  12163 


Those  who  call  on  us  personally  to  make  their  liarncss  purchases  usually  stop  at  this  set. 

Now  let  us  assume  that  you  have  evidenced  y.ur  cunhdence  in  our  business  integrity  by  order- 
ing a  set  of  this  harness  subject  to  our  agreement  on  pane  i:i:!.  lo  do  yourself  lull  juilicc  and 
to  insure  your  settiuK  the  best  possible  value  for  your  money,  let  us  also  assume  that  you  have 
another  set    (made  by  some  competitor  at  a   higher   price)    ready   to  compare   with   ours 

Now  let  us  see  if  the  harness  proves  our  claims  made  for  it— that  it  is  llih  Hi-.bl  H.\K- 
NESS    IN    THK    WORLD   for   the   money— let    us  make  an  honest  comparison,  and  pick  both  sets 

First  notice  the  handsome  general  appearance,  the  smooth  tinish  and  the  high  grade  look  in 
ffcneral  of  our  harness.  Handle  it  all  vou  care  to.  Does  any  of  the  blacking  rub  (.fT  on  to  your 
hands  denoting  a  cheap  finish?  Does  it  seem  properly  proportioned  throughout?  Are  the  buckles, 
rings".' hooks  and  terrets  of  a  heavy  and  durable  pattern?  .'\rc  the  straps  wide  and  of  full  length? 
How  about  the  thickness  of  the  straps?  ....  ..,    ,,  ...»  , 

The    thickness,   you   know,    denotes    either   "top   cut      leatlur   or      belly    stock.        A    strai     that    is 

not  thick  is  poor  stock.  ,        .,     .,  .  .111 

How  arc  the  parts  on  our  harness  made  that  correspond  with  tliosc  parts  on  tlie  lasi  har- 
ness you  bought   that  gave  out    first?  ,    .      ,  r  ,,         t    .  1  .  ^ 

Now  let  us  analyze  the  different  parts  of  the  harness  carefully.  Let  us  compare  quality  and 
workmanship,  taking  the  most  important  parts  of  the  harness  first,  those  parts  that  must  bear 
the    greatest    strain— those    parts    that    usually    give  way  first.  ,  „  , 

Did  you  ever  see  a?  high  grade,  as  well  made,  and  in  general,  as  handsome  saddle  pads  on 
any  set  of  double  harness  at  any  price?  The  catalogue  explanation  given  below  concerning  the 
saddle   will   better  enable    vour   fullv   appreciating  their  merits.     Read  it  carefully. 

The  traces  ari'  the  next  most  important.  (Read  the  catalogue  explanation  and  note  the  illus- 
tration of  our  traces.)  Do  the  traces  come  up  to  our  agreement?  How  do  they  compare  with 
the  other  fellow's  traces?     Would  vou  trade  our  traces   for  his? 

Scnitinize  everv  inch  of  the  bridles.  Did  you  ever  pull  on  a  firmer,  or  stronger,  or  hand- 
somer set  of  lines?  .And  would  you  feel  as  safe  driving  a  vicious  horse  with  the  other  fellow's 
lines  as  vou  would  with  these  on  our  harness? 

Just  'look  these  collars  over  carefully.  Do  you  find  any  pigskin  or  any  sheepskin  leather  in 
the  makeup?  .\re  the  other  fellow's  collars  made  of  genuine  kip  and  patent  leather  stock  like 
ours?     Rip  one  of  the  collars  open,  if  you  care  to,   and    see    how   it   is   stuffed. 

Did  you   notice  that  our  hames  are  riot  the  light,    flimsy,    cheap,    malleable    kind    that    usually 

break   easily?  ...  ,  .  .,,    ,  ,,        , 

But  why  go  further?  Tf  you  will  make  this  sort  of  a  comparison  you  will  do  yourself  and 
us  full  justice,  and  you  will  better  appreciate  by  making  such  a  comparison,  just  what  is  the 
real  value  we  are  offering  you  in  this  harness.  Vou  can  do  us  no  gi'eater  favor  than  by  making 
the   comparison   suggested.

This  harness  was  desiyned  to  cut  down  your  harness  bill  and  make  one  set  do  the-  work  of 
two  sets.  While  the  idea  is  a  new  one  it  is  thoroughly  practical.  We  have  tested  it  out  fully 
and  offer  it  to  our  customers  wiiii  that  assurance  and  back  it  up  with  our  guarantee  of  durability 
and    "Money   back"   approval    test    as   explained    on  page  133. 

No.  1216.'j  is  identically  the  same  in  style,  (luality,  strap  proportions,  etc.,  as  our  "BIG  SIX" 
LEADER  DOUBLE  II.\R.\KS.S  described  on  page  1G2,  e.xcept— IT  IS  SUPPLIED  WITH  V/4- 
INCH  SINGLE  STRAP  TRACES.  WITH  REINFORCED  DOUBLED  AND  STITCHED 
ENDS,  AND.  IN  ADDITION  TO  ALL  THE  PARTS  NECESSARY  FOR  A  DOUBLE  HAR- 
NESS.  IT   IS   SUPPLIED   WITH—

An  Extra  Set  of  Breeching as  used  on

An  Extra  Outside  Bellyband as  used  on 

One  Set  of  Shaft  Tugs as  used  on 

HOW  THE  SADDLE  PADS  ARE  ARRANGED 

The  saddle  illustration  shows  just  what  changes  are  nec- 
essary prei)aratory  to  using  f)ne-half  this  set  as  a  single  har- 
ness. The  si<Ie  to  the  front  of  the  illustration,  shows  the 
•"ingle  harness  arrangement  with  the  shaft  tug  buckled  to 
bearer,  and  the  onter  bellyband  in  jjIhcc,  while  the  far  side 
of  the  saddle  is  arranged  as  it  would  be  when  used  as  part 
of  a  double  set. 

The  lower  ends  of  the  trace  carrying  straps,  instead  of 
being  sewed  to  the  lower  ends  of  the  skirts,  and  to  the 
upper  ends  <»f  the  bellyband  billets  on  each  side,  are  at- 
tached by  means  of  a  buckle  In  making  the  change,  these 
bearers  are  simply  unbuckled  from  the  skirts  and  attached  to 
the  shaft  tujjs,  which,  in  turn,  are  alrea<ly  buckled  to  the 
extra  outside  bellyband.  Then,  one  end  of  the  h\\)  strap 
is  passed  through  the  turnback  and  attached  to  the  breeching. 

In  other  words,  there  are  only  three  straps  to  be  un- 
btiokled  and  buckled,  when  n  change  from  siir^'b-  to  douldc. 
or  fr-iin  f|.>tible  t"  sinK'lc  harness  is  made  The  change  can 
be  made  without  taking  the  harness  off  the  horse.  Remem- 
ber that  it  is  not  necessary  to  change  saddles  or  to  un- 
buckle bellybands:  neither  will  turnback  and  crupper  have 
to  be  changed  in  any   way. 

Special  attention  is  called  to  the  extra  wide  and  heavy 
pads.  These  arc  not  in  any  way  a  makeshift  article,  and 
in  every  part  these  are  built  for  service.  Read  complete 
description  of  these  pads  on  page  162.
